You should also check the configuration files in /usr/local/etc/apache. I think you should look at the file srm.conf and the directive "UserDir". The default setting for this is public_html. Note that Apache as well as Unix is case sensitive. What I do when I am having a problem with a web server or a CGI script is I open an xterm, cd to /var/log and do a tail -f on httpd-error.log. I often find my problem by watching the error messages come up in this file.
