What if my students or I get a 403 error?

403 errors are caused by links to pages that do not exist, have been moved, renamed, or links to pages that the user trying to view the file does not have permission to view in most cases students.

1. You have copied content from another course and all HTML links point to the old course resources and not the new course resources. ##Re-link all HTML links so that they point to the new course resource files and not the old course resource files
