Tonight I received the following error while trying to implement the Super Fish jquery menu plugin:
HTTP Error 401.3 – Unauthorized
You do not have permission to view this directory or page because of the access control list (ACL) configuration or encryption settings for this resource on the Web server.
At first it threw me for a loop, because my website could access all other files just fine. The only files that were being blocked, were the .js files that I was trying to use. The other .css files were coming through fine, and they had the same permissions setup as the .js files.
It turns the that the files were “blocked” by Windows because they “came from another computer”…
After unblocking the file, I was still getting the same error, and then I noticed that the file name font color was green, which seemed kind of odd. I opened up the advanced attributes on the file, and there was one more checkbox that I needed to clear. The file was encrypted, and therefore the web server could not read it. Clearing that box resolved the issue.
