I’m pulling my hair out over this. I’m no network engineer but I thought I could at least troubleshoot like any millennial should be able to, but I have no idea what is going on. My master index.php is referencing a file, the path looks like this reference/send_email.php. I’m getting a 403 error trying to load that file in the Inspect tool. But without changing any permissions I’m able to load reference/index.css and reference/contactForm.js which are also both located in the reference folder. Regardless, I’ve changed the permissions for EVERYTHING inside public_html in CPanel to 777, but I’m still getting a 403.

I’ve seen a lot of talk about SELinux in my search to figure this stuff out, but I have no idea how to run command line prompts inside CPanel. Any help would be amazing, thanks.
