How to change the www (DocumentRoot) folder to another partition in Apache 2.4 (Ubuntu 14.04)?

Navigation

I tried to change the Document Root by changing the default.conf files in sites-available. However I get the message that I am not allowed to access localhost. Could anyone tell you the exact procedure? I may have forgotten something. - Apache 2.4.7 - Ubuntu 14.04

You need to change two apache configuration files:

File 1: 

   sudo vim /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

Change the line: 

   <Directory /var/www/>

For        

It looks like this: 

   <Directory /home/usuario/diretorio_que_vc_quiser/>
         Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
         AllowOverride All
         Require all granted
   </Directory>

File 2: 

   $ sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
   ou
   $ sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.conf

Change the line: 

    DocumentRoot /var/www

for 

    DocumentRoot /home/usuario/diretorio_que_vc_quiser/

Do not forget to restart apache after: 

    $ sudo service apache2 restart

I was having the same problem, I had forgotten about 

<Directory /home/usuario/diretorio_que_vc_quiser/>

in the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file
