CentOS Apache DNS - Virtual Host

Okay, so I have managed to fix my other issues through searching around Google, but now, I have stumbled yet again with another problem that I could neither fix nor search through Google.

Anyway, hello and good day pipz.

I am trying to create a local server through LAN connection. Other computers can already access the server by either typing the hostname or the I.P. address.

The default server root is /var/www/html, and the server displays an Apache Welcome page, since I removed the index.html in the said location.

I would want for the server to instantly throw me to a page I made, which is located inside a folder within the server root.

I can access the said page if I type the IP address, followed by slashes and names of the folder locations and then the file name, like so...

Code:

example.com/loc1/loc2/index.php

And the server displays it no problem.

Now though, I want to simply type "example.com" and the server automatically throws me to the index.php within loc1 and loc2 folders.
After researching, I found out that I needed to write a Virtual Host within httpd.conf.
I did just that...

Code:

<VirtualHost example.com:80>

#    DocumentRoot /var/www/html
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/loc1/loc2
    DirectoryIndex index.php
    ServerName example.com

    <Directory "/var/www/html/loc1/loc2">
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>

    Redirect 404 /favicon.ico
    <Location /favicon.ico>
        ErrorDocument 404 "No favicon"
    </Location>

    ErrorLog /etc/httpd/logs/example-error.log

</VirtualHost>

But after trying to type example.com, the server displays a white blank page. Accessing the error log files, it gave me this message.

Code:

Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/

I don't understand why that is happening. If I comment the file's location and uncomment the root location, the server displays the Apache Welcome page again, and if I type the location on the address bar, the index.php is displayed properly.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thankies~

 

Please use the IP address instead of the hostname:

Code:

<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80>

(Replace 1.2.3.4 with the server's IP.)

 

Thanks falko, but I already tried that method, and it gave me this error message...

Code:

[Mon Oct 01 10:20:58 2012] [error] [client 1.2.3.4] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thankies~
