Question

I’m using nodejs w/ expressjs on a Mac and the static files (css/js/img) for the client side, always show as ‘Forbidden’.

I’ve tried setting chown on these directories to 777 and running node using sudo, but still it’s showing Forbidden.

Any idea how to set proper permissions for a nodejs web server on a Mac?

Thanks!

Are you doing something like this

app.use("/public", express.static(__dirname + "/public"));

in your app.configure?
