I am less than a two week old User for Linux

I will be doing a web server for my office

I wanted to test the phpinfo page but than when i go to //localhost/~mmsaulon/test.php

It say

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

My command is very simple

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Save at ~mmsaulon/public_html/test.php

I wonder why is there a Access Forbidden Error
I want to try to test this infopage

localhost is working

I am using SUSE Server 10, Apache, PHP, MySQL
Hope that you guys could help me.
Thank you for reading my help posting
Have a Good Day.

chmod -R 755 ~mmsaulon/public_html

Always remember, to access your public_html, enabling UserDir is not enough. All dirs in path of your public_html should have +x (executable) rights... then only it will work

actually the folder public_html is already with the permissions that you have question but im still getting the same result.

but anyways thanks for the reply.

Difference between Linux server & windows server

by the way, is there an order in installing these softwares?

Post the document root, exact url your trying to accessing for displaying phpinfo, also which file is displaying when you are calling http://localhost/
