The Apache installed on Mac OS X Leopard (10.5.x) is initially configured extremely conservatively, at first glance it appears broken when you try to visit your user account directory and you get:

This is supposed to display the contents of /Users/jpeacock/Site To fix this you need to add a directory configuration for your user account directories.

Open a terminal and edit the Apache configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf as root, adding the new directory configuration as shown below the existing comment block:

  #
  # Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow
  # particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as
  # you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it
  # below.
  #
 
  # open up permissions for user dirs
  <directory "/Users/*/Sites">
      Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
      AllowOverride All
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
  </directory>

Save your changes, then restart Apache to reload the new configuration:

sudo /usr/sbin/apachectl restart

Now everything should be working:
