I'm trying to access my site at localhost, but I get:

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /index.html on this server.
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80"

My error.log says:

I chowned to myusername:myusername /var and /var/www, chmoded to 711 /var and 751 /var/www, I tried recursive chowning on /var and recursive chmoding on /var/www, but still nothing.

How to access my site?

UPDATE:

var and www are chowned www-data:deltrem, var is chmoded 711, www 751, it still doesn't work :-(

recursive chowning on var (luckyfully) doesn't seem to have worked
