403 Forbidden when using a dir wildcard

Question

I am using a wild card so that I do not have to create a dir listing for each folder I create I can access folder.dev/index.html correctly but when I try to access folder.dev I am getting a 403based on the folder I am trying to access /Users/Jess/Sites/dev/test/ and the error Directory index forbidden by Options directive

Why?

<Directory "/Users/Jess/Sites/dev/*">
Options All
AllowOverride All
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Try removing the /* at the end of the Directory line. The wildcard is implied and unnecessary.

<Directory "/Users/Jess/Sites/dev">

If that doesn't work, instead of Options All try Options Indexes

You're probably setting Options differently in Location/LocationMatch which overrides this configuration.
