change web root apache mac OS X

Question

I cant change my web root in apache, for some reason it points to /Sites/folder1/folder2 instead of it pointing to /Sites. I configured and change my apache

Answer 1

I ran into this problem: Once you change the root of web server to somewhere other than the default (/Library/WebServer/Documents), you need setup virtual host, otherwise, localhost will not work, and you will get:
403 Forbidden error
You can refer to this link for details on how to set it up:

Also make sure the following line is in the configuration file for the web directory if your Max is running OS X 10.10:
Require all granted

For your reference, I just remind you if this ever happens to you.
