Apache "Forbidden" Error after Leopard Upgrade

Hopefully this is really simple.

I have just upgraded from Tiger to Leopard and as part of that process Apache 2.2 was installed where before I had Apache 1.3. Interesting the upgrade turned Web Sharing OFF - nice - however that was easily overcome in System Preferences.

However, I know next to nothing about Apache so cannot easily solve the next problem. Now whenever I try to access http://localhost/~Username Apache returns "Forbidden - You do not have permission".

It would be much appreciated if anyone could let me know where I need to put the 'tick-in-the-box' or amend some configuration setting. Thanks in advance.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5)
