I have a virtual directory set up:

<Directory "/Applications/XAMPP/branding">
    Options None
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

with an alias defined:

Alias /branding "/Applications/XAMPP/branding"

i put a jpeg file in that folder and trying to access it via:

http://127.0.0.1/branding/image.jpeg

I am getting an authentication error:

Access forbidden!

You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either read-protected or not readable by the server.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

I restarted the web server after making my changes.

    Does the file have permissions that are visible to the user that Apache is running as?

    If you do an “ls -lah”, what is your output?
