I'm having issues with the logout method.

I have a logout_button which renders a form that sets a hidden fields 'authen_logout' to 1. I am also calling $self->authen->logout(); directly. But in either case, I get back in my browser, the following:

Forbidden:  You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Any ideas what I might be missing?

I even have dispatch logic which looks like this:

if ($button eq 'Logout') {
  $logger->debug('dpr_EnterPrsRls logout button chosen.\n"');
  $form->param(-name => 'authen_logout', -value => '1');
  $self->authen->logout();

The behavior I expect to see is that a new login form is displayed.

The behavior I observe is the Forbidden message, after a reload, another Forbidden message, then I use back to get back to the menu. When I attempt to load another authenticated runmode, I am finally diverted to the login form.

All help is appreciated.
