Hi,

Without knowing anything about Manhattan Virtual Classrooms, here is my
2 cents...

I guess that your virtual host files contain more than just the
ScriptAlias directives, right?

For setting up a virtual host, take a look at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/

Assuming that you have the Directory directives in which you have the
Allow from all (and other necessary options), are the directories under
/home/manhat/ accessible and readable by www-data?

Simo
