I was having the same problem initially.
I'm too much of a noob to be sure this will fix your issue, but I solved
my problem by doing the following:
1. I edited my mythweb.conf.apache file to point to the installation
directory <Directory "/var/www/html/mythweb" >
2. I moved and renamed the mythweb.conf.apache file to the
/etc/httpd/conf.d directory --> mv mythweb.conf.apache
/etc/httpd/conf.d/mythweb.conf
3. Lastly, I changed my permissions for the mythweb/data directory to
allow full access --> chmod a+rw /var/www/html/mythweb/data (I imagine
some of the more cautious people would cringe at providing full access
like this, but in my situation it just doesn't matter).
I appear to be all set now. I don't know if the last step was really
necessary (the permissions may have been OK to begin with), but I didn't
want to spend too much time fiddling with things, so I used a little bit
of a shotgun approach.
Hope this helps.
