First, it looks like you haven't read the big box labled "Main host
goes away" on this page:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/name-based.html

Second, you have some permissions problem.  If you are using Fedora,
then you can't do what you want without turning off or modifying the
SELinux configuration.
