Chris,

Making the assumption that you're getting the 403 from Apache, the
authorization directives changed radically between versions 2.2 and 2.4.
Check the Apache settings that you have protecting that location to make
sure they match the OOTB configuration shipped with 3.3.

If that all looks normal, we'll need more details.

Take care,
Nate
