The default root directory for Apache is now /var/www/html, If you want to use a directory that is not under that tree , you need to either put a symbolic link in that directory that points to the one want use or change the DocumentRoot setting in /etc/httpd/conf/commonhttpd.conf.If you change the DocumentRoot setting it affects the entire directory tree that apache uses & may have unanticipated side effects so I'd recommend using a symbolic link.
