Looks like you don't have a default page name set up in apache. This is usually set up so apache looks for a default page if someone types in a directory name (or site) without specifying a particular page name (ie "index.html").
The message is saying that you did not indicate a page name in the url, but you also do not have permission to browse the entire directory of "root".
Look in your "srm.conf" file for a directive like:
"DirectoryIndex index.html"
If there isn't one, add one and specify the page name and extension that you want each directory to default to if a page name was not specified in the url. If you are running php, consider:
"DirectoryIndex index.php"
Then make sure that your default pages in each directory are named appropriately.
