Being logged on as root makes no difference, because this is a HTTP request to the server.

What does the error log say? You're probably lacking an "allow from" directive somewhere. See: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/ClientDeniedByServerConfiguration and
Just found out (reading some stuff about directives) that in the standard httpd.conf file there is a section:

# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of features.
#
<Directory />
   AllowOverride None
   Order deny,allow
   Deny from all
</Directory>

which I hashed out immediately to see what would happen. After that, I browsed to one of my sites and got response, but only .php code contents. So I knew I was on the right way. Then I noticed that in my httpd.conf there was a line saying:

*LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache22/libphp5.so
*
but there wasn't a accompanied AddType application directive! So I added in the <IfModule mime_module> an extra line, saying

*AddType application/x-httpd-php .php*

After restarting Apache22, it all works again without problems. And even faster than it did before!

I am quite pleased to see that the httpd.conf is considerably shorter than the Apache1.3x was. Mine is so compact now that you nearly wouldn't believe it would work. So overall experience for an Apache nub like me: if you can, do use it. Will make your life much easier when it runs finally :-)

Thanks,
