Learners can no longer upload assignments

Recently, learners have been unable to upload their assignments. After browsing and selecting a given file on their system, they click the submit button and see this message:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /moodle/mod/assignment/upload.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.mysandbox.net Port 80

The directory that holds uploaded learners' data is called uploaddata on my server. It has 777 permission set. What is strange is that it was working fine, awhile back. Some learners find that they can still upload assignments while others cannot.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems on their server? mixed
