Apache configuration
Hi.
I've installed apache with php under Ubuntu 10.10. I need to change the DocumentRoot to a directory other than /var/www/ which is the default, but I get "Forbidden" message.
With /var/www/ everything is ok, I can also copy web directories to it and execute php codes, but it doesn't work at all for the other address, say /media/drive2/.
I even set permissions for /media/drive2/htdocs/ and all of it's children to 777(!) but I still get the same "forbidden" error.
Please help!
Thanks

the /media/drive2/ is an EXT4 drive, I can see permissions assigned to my htdocs directory.
I also use terminal for more assurance.
Below if the old and new working value of the DocuementRoot option:
In addition I had to change the Directory option a few lines below, shown below are the old and new values for that option:
Have you confirmed the that paths above are pointing to the correct locations? In addition can you post the ls -la output from you new www directory and htdocs directories here?
