[ILUG] Apache & Mandrake 8.2

[Tom Mackey]

Hi,
After I upgraded a machine running Mandrake 8.1 to 8.2  Apachie stopped 
working.  The browser says " you dont have permission to access / "  and the 
log files says " client denied by server config /etc/httpd/htdocs"  The 
latter file does not exist and is not to be found in any of the config files. 
 Document root is set to /var/www/html and full permissions given to everyone 
to access this directory.
Where am I going wrong?

PS Apache ver is 1.3.23
