Permissions for web root

[Alma J Wetzker]

I am trying to get my daughters school project up before my classes tonight so 
I don't have as much time to comb the docs.

I moved the web root from:

/var/www/localhost/htdocs

to:

/var/www/wetzker.org/htdocs

This is apache 2.0.52.  When I change the apache2.conf from:

DocumentRoot /var/www/localhost/htdocs

to:

DocumentRoot /var/www/wetzker.org/htdocs

I get a permissions error in the browser:

"you don't have permission to access / on this server"

The owner of the directories (localhost and wetzker.org) is root with 
permissions of 755 for directories and 644 for files.

What do I need to tweak to get apache to cough up the web site?
