title: Starting built in Apache server in Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)
body: <p>I'd like to start my apache server in my Mac OSX Mavericks. Here is what I did:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>launch the terminal application</li>
  <li>sudo apachectl start</li>
  <li>The server started without problem. But I got the following problem when I tried to open the localhost in web browser:</li>
  </ol>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>You don't have permission to access / on this server.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Here is my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: (I didn't change anything here)</p>
  
  <pre><code>DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents"
  
  &lt;Directory /&gt;
      Options FollowSymLinks
      AllowOverride None
      Order deny,allow
      Deny from all &lt;/Directory&gt;
  
  &lt;Directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents"&gt;
  
      Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
      AllowOverride None
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
  
  &lt;/Directory&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anybody advise what could be the cause ? Thanks</p>
