The problem is still the lack of "Indexes" on one of your Options directives. Do the following: 1. Add this to the bottom of httpd.conf and restart apache: <Location /> Options +Indexes </Location> 2. To find out where the original problem is run grep Options httpd.conf and also grep Include httpd.conf and then run grep Options on each file that is Included by httpd.conf.
