I'm entirely new to Ubuntu and git server development, but I've been learning a lot as I go along.
I've been working on getting a git server set up and apache2 set up as well, but I can't seem to get the website to access the files I need it to.
My OS is loaded on a 120GB SSD, but my git is on a different drive all together. When I access the apache webpage, I'm met with a 403 Forbidden Error message.
The git repository is in /media/rowanvr/Storage/git.git, Storage/ being my HDD. I've done chmod www-data.www-data to that location and nothing changes.
Below is the apache2.conf file; omitting the comments.

I've gotten access to the site before so I know it isn't a port issue. It's an issue with apache not having access to that directory despite declaring it.
I'm sure I'm forgetting something, let me know what other info I can provide! Thanks!
