I am a new user to apache and trying to learn and have setup a domain just for learning and testing. However, before I even start i am getting Forbidden You do not have permission to access this document.. I know after research that this error has to do with either http.conf or .htaccess file.
I do not have .htaccess file in directory and have posted my http.conf file. I would be grateful if someone could help me to overcome this problem. Many thanks
FYI I have replaced sensitive data with leading zeros.

Answer
in response to comment:
$ sudo chown -R apache:root /path/to/website
$ sudo find /path/to/website -type f -exec chmod 644 {} ;
$ sudo find /path/to/website -type d -exec chmod 755 {} ;
this will chown (change owner) recursivly in your website root to apache:root (you can change to your server user). It then finds all the files (-type f) and executes a chmod 644 and find the directories (-type d) and executes a chmod 755 – hope this helps 🙂
