 Hi,
Your *Working* Directory is /home/webapps/. What apache is interested in is 
your *Document Root* aka webroot. You need to either change your webroot to 
/home/webapps or use a *Directory Alias* directive inside your httpd.conf to be 
able to access http://localhost/webapps/index.php from the browser.

give the 'ls -al /home/webapps/index.php' and 'ls -ald /home/webapps/' . 
  My first guess is that the  /home/webapps/ is not owned by the apache 
user (www-data in case of ubuntu/debian systems).  chow these 
directories to the group www-data and then try.
