What have I done wrong?


Forbidden

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

Here is apache2.conf

Allow from all is no longer an option. Do not mix 2.2 config with the new 2.4 style ( Require).

I wonder why apachectl -S did not barf about it.

Ok, I made some changes and got it enabled using a2ensite. Here's what I got now:

db1:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled# apachectl -M | nc termbin.com 9999
http://termbin.com/atv2

db1:/etc/apache2# cat apache2.conf | nc termbin.com 9999
http://termbin.com/y5v5

db1:/etc/apache2# cat apache2.conf | nc termbin.com 9999
http://termbin.com/93gl

db1:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled# cat madmanmarcum.com.conf | nc termbin.com 9999
http://termbin.com/8dq9

Permissions are gid,oid www-data for all of /var/www, including my vhost. index.php is 644. Everything has the right permissions.

Error in log is now

AH01797: client denied by server configuration: /var/www/madmanmarcum.com/

It was mod_compat.

Disabled and all is well
