I have downloaded all files (in a folder) for a website that I want to test on a local server on my computer. I want to know steps that I should take to make apache 2.2 point to that folder. So that my I type http:/localhost/mywebpage. it displays in my browser.

Ok now i've got something to work with

There are several ways to do this, the quickest one being to add yourself to the www-data group eg sudo adduser yourusername www-data and move your folder to /var/www/

Can you help with this problem?
