[Question #239884]: 403 after new DocumentRoot in ubuntu 13.10 server

 

New question #239884 on apache2 in Ubuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+question/239884

I installed ubuntu 13.10 server ( ip address 192.168.1.103 )
  When I went to 192.168.1.103 in the browser I got as expected:
--------------------------------------------
It works!

This is the default web page for this server.

The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.
--------------------------------------------

Then I modified /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf from
             DocumentRoot /var/www
to
             DocumentRoot /home/me/www

Now in the browser I am getting 403 :
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache/2.4.6 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.1.103 Port 80

Why is moving doc root gives permission error?
