A long time ago I had this problem on one of my boxes, I currently use Debian for my webserver though. It is usually caused by a misconfiguration in the Directory section for DocumentRoot. The quick workaround would be to define a Directory section for the directory james whithin either a virtual hosts container or the global section of the config file. You may have too restrictive permissions in you options section elswhere stopping a URL from descending down from DocumentRoot. Sorry if this is already covered, but I am missing the posts before this one. HTH David.
