Liam. Your ServerRoot should probably still be "/etc/apache2". ServerRoot is the root of the directory tree where your apache config files are kept. What I was referring to was your DocumentRoot which is what your WEBSERVER_ROOT environment variable should be set to. This DocumentRoot is the root directory where you serve your documents (i.e. index.html).
