Hello, Ben.

All I can say is that I had your exact same experience, even with
foo.txt - I suggest you check your apache error logs which may be
located in /var/log/ to discover why exactly the folder is forbidden.
In order to correct the problem, I got rid of apache 2, took the
advice on cat-v and used lighttpd instead. However, one pointer I can
offer you is to make sure that all the parent directoris (/usr/ /
local/) are executable and have the correct permissions /as well as/ /
usr/local/ itself.

Hope that helps.
