Look through the configuration file, and the manual, for the options
related to userdir. You don't have it enabled.
If you've also got selinux in use on your system, you're probably in for
some grief with it, as well. As it won't allow Apache to read user files,
until configured to do so.
I'm in two minds as to whether selinux provides any useful benefits, to
bother with reconfiguring it, or just to stop using it. You can decide
what you prefer to do. I'd seen the following information about dealing
with it in the last few days:
<http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-apache-fc3/>
And:
...... A problem with the context of one or more of the Apache files when
installed using RPM. You can actually fix it pretty easy (I had help).
You can issue the following command (as root): /sbin/fixfiles -F relabel
You may or may not need to restart the webserver or the computer after
reconfiguring these things. But be warned that that /sbin/fixfiles
instruction does every file on the computer, which may take some time. The
information in that weblink shows a way to just do a specific directory (on
about the second or third page, I think).
