The http error 403 is an error message that is occasionally displayed in the user’s web browser. The 403 error is one of the many hypertext transfer protocol responses that can appear when attempting to access a web page. If the ‘403 Forbidden’ message appears in your browser instead of the website you requested, it means that you are not authorized to access the specified URL.
Trying to start BetOnline client? 7: March 12th, 2020 6:55 PM: Poker Rooms: BetOnline (Chico Network) now supported by PokerTracker4: 8: December 4th, 2019 3:11 AM: Poker Software. Where sports, casino and poker combine for unforgetable entertainment. I having similar problem. I use to register when registration opens, than close the client, and back when its starting. Sometimes im late 1-2 minutes, there is no problem with Holdem, but if im not on time, i cant play that (only that) Omaha anymore. There is just a screen without button, cards, whatever - screenshot down below. This status code is not specified in any RFCs, but is used by CloudFlare's reverse proxies to signal an 'unknown connection issue between CloudFlare and the origin web server' to a client in front of the proxy.
But why is access being denied? And is it still possible to reach the desired web page? The answers to these questions vary from case to case, as there are many possible causes for an http status code 403. Read on to find out how to identify the error and how to fix it.
- Possible 403 error sources and how to fix them
How does an http error 403 occur?
The http 403 error message can occur when surfing the internet, specifically during the communication between the http client and the http server (web server). In order to understand 403 errors, it helps to visualize the process of accessing a web page.
When you attempt to open a web page, the browser sends a request to the appropriate web server via the hypertext transfer protocol (http). The server then checks this query. If everything has been entered correctly, the browser sends an http status code of the ‘2xx success’ category (such as ‘200 OK’ or ‘201 created’) before loading the web page. This takes place within a fraction of a second and users do not usually see the code.
If the procedure fails, however, a different class of error message will be displayed. These ‘4xx client error’ codes, which include the ‘403 forbidden’ message, differ from the ‘2xx success’ messages. Each error code is distinguished by an automatically generated HTML error page. Of this class, the best known is the 404 error message. All 4xx http status codes are server responses that indicate that the request was unsuccessfully processed. As the status code name implies, the client is generally the – but not necessarily – the source of the problem.
The http status code 403 itself expresses that the requested URL does indeed exist, but the client’s request could not be carried out. The client was not authorized to access the webpage. However, the true cause for an http error 403 varies from case to case; there are many different reasons as to why an error 403 message might appear.
With some websites, searching for specific directories is actively prevented by the 403 status. An example of this is when web pages contain images that can’t be accessed or copied easily. If this is the case, there is very little the user can do to gain access to the page. However, in most other cases, users can rectify a 403 forbidden error message. Read on to find out how.
Possible 403 error sources and how to fix them
‘403 forbidden’ messages are also displayed as ‘Error 403 access denied’, ‘http 403’, or simply ‘Forbidden’. This error message often leads users to think that these messages appear when a password is required in order to access the web page. In general, this type of situation wouldn’t cause a http error 403 message – there would be a 401 error code instead. The messages usually appear due to an error in the client’s settings. The most common errors are as follows:
Solution 1: deactivate browser extensions
It’s possible that your browser has been rejected due to active plugins and/or add-ons, such as ad blockers or proxy plugins. If you encounter a 403 error, you should try deactivating your extensions and then try to access the URL again.
Solution 2: clear your browser cache
If your browser still displays the http status code 403 after you’ve deactivated the plugins, try emptying the cache and see if this resolves the issue.
Solution 3: firewall settings
If clearing your cache still doesn’t lead to the desired web page, it’s also possible that there is a problem between the web server and your firewall that is responsible for the HTTP error 403 being displayed in the browser. If you trust the web page operator, you can disable the firewall and try opening the web page again. If this finally solves the problem, you should adjust your firewall settings so that this page is allowed.
http status code 403 is usually easy to bypass
The 403 error usually states that the browser is not authorized to view the requested page. However, with a bit of luck, you should be able to fix the http error 403 with one of the previously mentioned tricks. If you’ve tried all of these methods and you still see the error message, you should check your browser and/or firewall settings.
Some website operators protect specific directories from ‘directory browsing’ and the administrator might have configured the authorization settings incorrectly. If you suspect this is the case, your only option is to contact the website operator and alert them to the 403 error. If all these options have failed, you just have to accept that you are unable to access your desired URL.

Below you can see the previous updates and news as it unfolded.
Update Sunday, 1:50pm EST on 10/18/20 – BetOnline website appears to be up and running. Customers are able to log in and wager. Sportsbetting.ag is still offline.
Update Sunday, 10/18/20 at 12 NOON EST – The BetOnline and SportsBetting websites are still down. A Tweet they just posted says that they expect to be back later today. Many people are wondering what will happen to the contests this week. Some people were able to get their picks in while others were not. We have not had a direct response from BetOnline on the matter but word on the street is that this week will be a wash, meaning that no picks will count for the contests this week. But, any non-contest bets already placed will be graded and awarded or deducted accordingly.
This is no doubt a catastrophe for one of the internet’s top U.S. facing online sportsbooks. There is no telling how much this weekend’s lost action will cost them in the end. They didn’t and shouldn’t pay the hacker’s ransom demands because that cannot guarantee they won’t attack again and it also encourages other would-be attackers.
UPDATE: Saturday, 10/17/20 at 9:05pm EST – BetOnline now has a message on their homepage which describes the situation & states that they are under “an aggressive cyber attack”. Click to see screen shot. Sister sportsbook SportsBetting.ag is also affected by this same cyber attack.
It is important to understand that customer data & funds are secure. This is a DDoS attack in which the perpetrator floods the websites with so much fake traffic that it overwhelms the servers. More on DDoS attacks
UPDATE: Friday, 10/16/20 at 2:14 PM – BetOnline has confirmed they are down because of cyber attack. Here is the message they just sent out to customers: “Valued customers, we are offline due to an aggressive cyber attack. We’re taking every measure to resolve the issue and we will be fully operational again as soon as possible.”.
Betonline Client Connection Error Failed
Original: Friday, 10/16/20 at 1:01 PM – The very popular online sportsbook BetOnline.ag has been down all day today 10/16/20. The people at BetOnline are aware of the issue and are working to restore the site.
The error message people are getting has alternated between a BetOnline page with a computer generated error message stating that the Cloudflare connection is working and that the server is returning an error and another message which simply states “You do not have permission to view this directory or page.”.
It should be noted that there were a string of outages with BetOnline a couple of years ago due to a DDoS attack. There is no confirmation if this is what is happening here. BetOnline does employ Cloudflare, a company which specializes in preventing these sorts of attacks. Coincidentally (or not) Cloudflare just sent this message to all of its clients this afternoon.
