I set up WordPress to run on my local windows box using apache virtual host. Once done with the installation I started getting “You do not have permission to access this directory” error. To solve this, add the default page to be displayed when a directory access is made, to your virtual host config.
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "D:/projects/personal/wordpress-3.0.1/wordpress"
ServerName alpha.com
<Directory "D:/projects/personal/wordpress-3.0.1/wordpress">
DirectoryIndex index.php
</Directory>
ErrorLog "logs/alpha.com-error.log"
CustomLog "logs/alpha.com-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>
Main thing to notice is DirectoryIndex index.php.
