For the purpose of running a webserver on my NixOS installation, I have included the following in my configuration.nix. (Note that I have very little experience with setting up servers and have not found exact definitions of all of the parameters included below.)




services.httpd = {
enable = true;
adminAddr = "localhost";

extraModules = [ "http2" ];

virtualHosts =
[
{
hostName = "localhost";
documentRoot = "/home/edmund/docroot";
enableUserDir = true;
servedDirs = [ { urlPath = "/www"; dir = "/www"; } ];
serverAliases = [ "localhost" ];
enableSSL = false;
}
];
};


However when I try to access the default index.html page through http://localhost on a Firefox browser, the message which comes up is 'Access forbidden! Error 403' (with some additional descriptive text).



Is this because HTTPD_ROOT and the DocumentRoot listed in the httpd.conf file both seem to point to a directory inside /nix/store, which has tightly locked permissions? (Rather than the document root which I specified.)



How can I configure this server to display a page?



Thanks.
