I put in the path to where the executable file that's also the web server is.  
That's the docroot, since it's also where the static assets are.  As for a URL 
where it works, it's only my internal IP so far.

In my router's settings, under NAT > Virtual Servers, I have these two rules 
for the port forwarding:
Server Name     External Port Start     External Port End       Protocol        
Internal Port Start     Internal Port End       Server IP Address       WAN 
Interface   LAN Loopback    Enable/Disable  Remove
 Secure Web Server (HTTPS)       8443    8443    TCP     8443    8443    
192.168.10.9    ppp2.1 Disabled
 HTTP    8080    8080    TCP     8080    8080    192.168.10.9    ppp2.1 Disabled


192.168.10.9 is my internal IP address.  I'll try again after setting my server 
app first and then Apache, but for now, does this look okay to you?
