Hey, the Document root directory is the folder that contains the
webpages / webdata and is usually "apache/htdocs".
You should really try PHPTriad ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/phptriad/
) since it`s an apache / php / mysql bundle or you may try XAMPP
( http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html ) wich is basicly the
same thing.
