Access forbidden! Windows 10 PHP XAMPP

Question

Suddenly, i got this error when trying to submit my form. It worked fine until now.

Access forbidden!

You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either read-protected or not readable by the server.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

My htttpd-vhosts without changes

# Virtual Hosts
#
# Required modules: mod_log_config

# If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your
# machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations
# use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn't need to worry about
# IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below.
#
# Please see the documentation at 
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/>
# for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts.
#
# You may use the command line option '-S' to verify your virtual host
# configuration.

#
# Use name-based virtual hosting.
#
##NameVirtualHost *:80
#
# VirtualHost example:
# Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container.
# The first VirtualHost section is used for all requests that do not
# match a ##ServerName or ##ServerAlias in any <VirtualHost> block.
#
##<VirtualHost *:80>
    ##ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com
    ##DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/dummy-host.example.com"
    ##ServerName dummy-host.example.com
    ##ServerAlias www.dummy-host.example.com
    ##ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-error.log"
    ##CustomLog "logs/dummy-host.example.com-access.log" common
##</VirtualHost>

##<VirtualHost *:80>
    ##ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.example.com
    ##DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/dummy-host2.example.com"
    ##ServerName dummy-host2.example.com
    ##ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-error.log"
    ##CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-access.log" common
##</VirtualHost>

Two suggestions I would try:

First, check the folder's security settings. If it is not set to be readable to everyone, it should throw this error, so make sure that works.

Second, have you restarted the daemon? It goes without saying, but the httpd file will not update while the daemon is running.

im not using daemon – Apr 25 '17 at 04:19
By daemon I mean the XAMPP service itself. Sorry if it was unclear – Michael Apr 25 '17 at 04:25
I got almost full control (write and modify is not checked) of htdocs and maps (my data folder) from the first, now i changed it to full control and restarted it, still forbidden – Apr 25 '17 at 04:29

I solved it, it's from my form action $_server('php_self') Now, it's not defined. It worked well before. Thank You
