apache2 not reading DocumentRoot

sovtek

When starting apache I get the following message:

Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
Starting httpd: Warning: DocumentRoot [/home/auctrev/public_html] does not exist
[FAILED]

I'm trying to set up several sites and get apache to read documents from their respective /home/*/public_html folders.
IIRC the permissions are set correctly:

[root@naom home]# ls -l
total 72
drwxr-xr-x 3 auctrev auctrev 4096 Jun 2 11:31 auctrev
[root@naom auctrev]# ls -la
total 76
drwxr-xr-x 3 auctrev auctrev 4096 Jun 2 11:31 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 4096 Jun 1 17:10 ..
drwxrwxrwx 23 auctrev auctrev 4096 Jun 2 13:00 public_html
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Jun 2 11:31 www -> /home/auctrev/public_html/

Here is the relevant part of httpd.conf (that I know of anyway):

NameVirtualHost 192.168.50.10
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 192.168.50.10>
#BytesLog domlogs/dc2-web31-bytes_log
ServerName naom.mydomain.ie
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 192.168.50.10>
ServerAlias www.mydomain.com mydomain.com
ServerAdmin webmaster@mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /home/auctrev/public_html
ServerName www.mydomain.com
CustomLog domlogs/mydomain.com combined
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/auctrev/public_html/cgi-bin/
<Directory /home/auctrev/public_html/>
Options All MultiViews

AllowOverride All

Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Thanks

After playing around all day it turns out that it was SELinux restrictions on Apache.
I disabled it in /etc/sysconfig/selinux and can now server documents from users public_html directory.
Happy Days.
