Setting up a virtual host on LAMP (Ubuntu 11) returns 403

i am having problems with setting up a virtual host (Aptana Project directory) on a LAMP installation on Ubuntu 11 (via tasksel).

i can access /var/www via ht*p://localhost, but accessing /home/tg/Aptana..开发者_开发知识库. via ht*p://ea-dev returns an

"You don't have permission to access / on this server."

this is my apache2.conf: http://pastebin.com/Yja02tnE

this is my ea-dev located in /etc/apache2/sites-available/: http://pastebin.com/U1Vu2jxD

thats what i get in the error.log:

[crit] [client 127.0.0.1] (13)Permission denied: /home/tg/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable

I really don't understand why its written /home/tg and not /home/tg/Aptana... but maybe its just an abbreviation.

Have you checked to make sure the user running the apache daemon can read the files in the directories in question? I'd start with the .htaccess file. That is almost always the cause of the permission denied error. You may also need to add the tg user to the www-data group.

However, the other thing that stands out is the use of spaces in your path for DocumentRoot... I haven't actually ever done that, so I would also try normalizing your directory path, removing spaces and capital letters. That could explain why the path in the error log does not match the path you expected to see - apache does not normally abbreviate such things.

Good luck and let us know if you make any progress or have additional questions/info.
