    I am trying to install 2.7.1 as new and when I use the 5min install I get the 40 Forbidden message .
    I am sure that my config file is correct and that the permissions are correct ( after reading a lot of instructions and similar questions on this forum ) . Obviously some thing is not right but do you have any suggestions .
    the site is the chuffer cup.com and the host is ixwebhosting.com . Any but Any help really appreciated .

    Are you sure you got the permissions set according to those your host wants you to use? Generally the directory permissions should be 755 and the file permissions should be 644, however, some hosts may need them set to 777 to install. There are also some hosts which will give you an error for setting the permissions to 777. It could also be something in your .htaccess file. I can see that many of the directories just one level up also generate the 403 error, so its something beyond just WordPress which is causing this.
