There are dozens of different possibilities. Make sure that the
directory containing content to be served has to correct ownership and
permissions. Same for the contents of the directory. Make sure the
webserver has been told it is allowed to serve the directory.

Suggest you put a very simple index.html in the web root and make sure
that can be served, then work from there.
