Each time you add a new place in your filesystem that will be referenced by apache, such as the DocumentRoot statement inside your virtual hosts blocks, you nearly always have to add a <Directory> statement permitting access to that place.
For example, I have:
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

Hello,

I am attempting to set up a vhost machine using CentOS.

The issue I am having is with the user's home directories (where the pages are being server for
each site).  Example:  The user's site is www.example.com  and they have a home directory
called 'example'.  Inside thier home directory is a directory called 'www'.

Long story short, I have added the vhost part to the httpd.conf and the directory statement. I get
the message in the error log that "Permission is denied for /index.htm".

If anyone needs any additional information, please ask.

Thank you.
