Why does this get denied?

Hi,

Firstly apologies if what I'm about to ask is obvious, I'm kind of
new to selinux and I'm trying to read the relevant docs but I don't
understand something.  If what I ask is covered in a document then
I'd appreciate a pointer.

Okay so I just installed apache from RPM on fedora core 3 and when I
try to start it I get the following:

# service httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 266 of
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
DocumentRoot must be a directory

In /var/log/messages:

Dec 20 16:28:32 becks kernel: audit(1103560112.198:0): avc:  denied
{ search } for  pid=27331 exe=/usr/sbin/httpd name=/ dev=dm-1 ino=2
scontext=root:system_r:httpd_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t
tclass=dir

I am using the targeted policy.

Now, the only thing I have changed is, instead of having my document
root be /var/www/html I've put it in /data/www.  I edited
/etc/selinux/targeted/src/policy/file_contexts/program/apache.fc to
reflect the fact that my content is in a different place and did do
a restorecon to relabel things under /data.

What I don't understand is the reference to /.  Why is selinux
denying httpd searching /?  This is a new install and selinux has
been enabled from the start so / should be labelled correctly..

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Andy
