title: 403 error on XAMPP change document root
body: <p>I have installed XAMPP on Linux Mint. Got it running OK, then I wanted to change the htdocs folder location to another partition.</p>
  
  <p>I made these changes to httpd.conf:</p>
  
  <pre><code>DocumentRoot "/media/alex/776FAD4B34B3CF0A/XAMPP htdocs"
  &lt;Directory "/media/alex/776FAD4B34B3CF0A/XAMPP htdocs"&gt;
      Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
      AllowOverride All
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
  &lt;/Directory&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and also did:</p>
  
  <pre><code>cd /media/alex/776FAD4B34B3CF0A
  sudo chmod -R 777 "XAMPP htdocs"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but I keep getting a 403 error, despite restarting Apache.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions please!
  Thanks</p>
