I'm trying to change the XAMPP's web root default directory /opt/lampp/htdocs to another one like /home/me/Dropbox/public_html without success.
I've edited the file /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf
# old line: DocumentRoot "/opt/lampp/htdocs"DocumentRoot "/home/me/Dropbox/public_html"#...etc...# old line: <Directory "/opt/lampp/htdocs"><Directory "/home/me/Dropbox/Work/public_html">## Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",# or any combination of:# Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews# etc...I've did this as said in this article: Using Ubuntu One to synchronise htdocs?
Then I've restarted Apache and I've got a permission error 403 on every page I've called with the web browser.
So I've changed folder and files permission to 755.
I've did this as said in this article:
What file permissions should I set on web root?
The problem still remains the same, I have the 403 error on every page I try to reach with the web browser.
I have the same problem on a Mac using XAMPP.
So everythig works fine if the folder remains the original /opt/lampp/htdocs.
How can I change it correctly?
