did you do a ls -l of the DocumentRoot folder(/home/user/)?? Have you checked the apache error log(/var/log/apache/error.log)?? I am guessing you did a svn update on the directory root and it updated the permissions of the folder... – Anand Jeyahar May 22 '11 at 4:50

Stop doing things randomly..or better think and write down the steps you are going to do and then do them... I think you are better of asking questions in the irc.. – Anand Jeyahar May 22 '11 at 7:43

Are your lines in httpd.conf really all commented out (leading #)? This would explain a lot. – Axel Knauf May 22 '11 at 9:37

This can be one of two issues, ether
A) You don't have directory indexes enabled (add options +indexes to a .htaccess or modify your httpd.conf file
B) The directory Apache is trying to access doesn't have read permission. An easy way to do this without trawling through log files is switching to the Apache user (normally 'apache' or 'www-data') and trying to cd to the directory holding the files. If you get a permissions error then Apache won't be able to access those files. Switch back to root and do some chmod/chown-ing
