As per ur suggestion i have checked the User Directives.. and i have set User and Group directives to xxx as xxx is owner of /home/xxx directory and it has full permission to access /home/xxx.. then also i got same error.. is this issue related to selinux ? for permission of perticular user.

Check your User directive in your conf file. It'll show you who httpd is going to run as. As long as that user has access to the directories, it should be able to serve up pages from there. Mine looks like: User apache so as long as apache owns those directories on my server, it worked fine.</div><div> <div>On 9/2/06, Nirav Modiya <<a href="mailto:nirav.linux@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> nirav.linux@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div>hi stephen yes its works fine with /www directory..but i want to make /home directory as my DocumentRoot directory.... And i have tried by putting <Directrory> directives inside <VirtualHost> directives then also its giving error..i think its problem of permission but i have set it 755 for all /home/xxx as well as /home/xxx/public_html.. should i have to set any perticular group or user to access my /home directory..? Then also thank you for your all pointers..

First, put your <directory> directives inside your <VirtualHost></VirtualHost> directives. Also, if you want it to show directory indexes, you'll need to tell it to allow them.
