possible problem with htaccess

[xqtr]

I made a fresh install and when it's complete and try to navigate to the site ex. www.mysite.com, i get a forbidden message. If i enter the whole address with the index file ex www.mysite.com/index.php then Getsimple loads just fine. Same thing with the admin panel.

Any suggestions?

Is in the directory you uploaded GS file present an index.htm(l) file ?

No there isn't. I made a clean install in a subdir. If you want to check it, go to fugazigr.com/members/ttolis

The site is on hostgator and during the install there was no error. I also checked it out through the tools in the admin panel and all folder/files permissions are correct.

Thanx

Ok i fixed it... i added this line "DirectoryIndex index.php" to .htaccess file and now its just fine.
