[SOLVED] Secondary respository (linux) Error 403 Forbidden

Hello,

Happy New Year 2026 everyone!

Our secondary WAPT repository (Linux Debian 13) has been working since January 6, 2026, but now it's causing "error 403 Forbidden" errors (in the WAPT console).
Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

In the Nginx server logs (error.log), I have many entries for: 13 permission denied

Actually, I found the problem: the /opt folder had changed its Unix permissions to 700... I changed them back to 755 and everything is working perfectly again.
Weird.

Good evening leduf63,

thank you for the feedback. :-)

I don't see a case where the Wapt agent itself could perform a chmod 700 /opt; either there was a mistake, or there's a poorly formatted Wapt package. :-)

I'm marking the topic as resolved.

Regards,

Denis
