[users@httpd] consistent 403 for home directory
Hey everyone;
>From my Googling, this is a very common problem, but I haven't been able to
find an effective solution.
I'm trying to get Apache working on a fresh Fedora 14 install. I'm wanting
it to be able to access an additional directory in my home directory,
workspace, where I keep Eclipse projects.
My webserver is returning a constant 403 when trying to access a folder in
my home directory, whether that be from adding an Alias, a symbolic link to
that folder in the default /var/www/html, or setting it as the DocumentRoot.
The steps I've taken:
1. Disabled SELinux.
2. Checked file permissions on the directory in home; they are all 755.
3. Made sure that the 'Options FollowSymLinks' appears where it should
(for symlink).
4. Made sure that mod_alias is enabled (for Alias).
Any suggestions on what I might be missing? My config file is attached.
Thanks!

That was it, didn't check all the way from the root. Silly, but I'm glad I
asked. Thank you!

Every directory from the root to your directory must be executable by
the apache user.
