So I'm aware that Apple made configuring and using Apache in OS X Mountain Lion harder so they'd sell more copies of Mountain Lion server.

Spare me, please Apple. Don't you have enough money?

I got everything working and all was well until I was editing about a dozen html files on my website when the power went out.

When the computer came back up, all was seemingly well except it looks like though Apache is running, I can't actually key in localhost and see anything.

It's almost like my permissions got munged significantly.

Keying localhost I get:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.

I did a apachectl configtest and got:

"Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using CPUname.local for ServerName,
Syntax OK"

Up until this power outage I had a reasonably functioning 40+ gig webserver full of content.

Any ideas how to get this going quickly? Thanks in advance!
