Hello again,
Boy do i have a lot of problems this week!  After upgrading to the latest release, my admin/themes page is not accessible ("Directory access is forbidden.").  It's like it doesn't know I'm logged in as a superuser.  What could be causing this?
     
 
    
    
        Hi Erin,
Are you having trouble accessing other parts of the admin panel? Can you get to the user settings? plugins?

        Sheila,
I can navigate anywhere in the admin panel except in the themes admin area.
I might try to reinstall 1.0 tonight and maybe that will fix some of this.  After upgrading I never got the confirmation that the upgrade had actually "taken" (i.e. the usual "database updated" dialogue did not appear)
     
 
    
    
        I reinstalled Omeka 1.0 and it is still happening.
     
 
    
    
        Erin was having this problem with Omeka 1.0 -- Jeremy, what version of Omeka are you running?  Have you tried installing 1.1?
     
 
    
    
        I have installed 1.1.  I managed to get into the themes panel by logging in using admin/index.php.  But now I have a new problem.  I've selected an item as a "featured item" but on my home page it says that I have no featured items.  Any advice you could give me would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks!
     
 
    
    
        I just installed 1.1 and I cannot seem to getting into the themes panel either.  It also gives me a directory access is forbidden.
Any solutions?
     
 
    
    
        It probably is a permissions issue, see this post on the same topic:
