dokuwiki inital setup [SOLVED]

I'm trying to run a local copy of dokuwiki to mess around with it and figure out if I want to use it. That said, what I've got installed is:

Packages (4): apache-2.4.9-1  dokuwiki-20140505-2  php-5.5.13-1  php-apache-5.5.13-1

A call to phpinfo() works just fine within /srv/http/index.php when localhost is typed into the browser, so it seems that the requisite software is working. However, after following the installation instructions for Apache, I get a 403 when I point my browser to localhost/dokuwiki/install.php or localhost/dokuwiki/ or anything along those lines.

[patrick@blackbox ~]$ cat /etc/httpd/conf/extra/dokuwiki.conf 
#Alias /dokuwiki /usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki
#<Directory /usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki/>
#    Options +FollowSymLinks
#    AllowOverride All
#    order allow,deny
#    allow from all
#    php_admin_value open_basedir "/tmp/:/usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki/:/etc/webapps/dokuwiki/:/var/lib/dokuwiki/"
#</Directory>

Alias /dokuwiki /usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki
<Directory /usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki/>
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    order allow,deny
    allow from all
    php_admin_value open_basedir "/srv/http/:/home/:/tmp/:/usr/share/pear/:/usr/share/webapps/:/etc/webapps/dokuwiki/:/var/lib/dokuwiki/"
</Directory>

The commented out block is the content that came from the pacman install. The uncommented block is from the wiki. Both produce the same results. Then, in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

...
Include conf/extra/dokuwiki.conf
...

And finally, from the tip on permissions from the wiki:

If you are running Apache 2.4 or newer, you will have to change the following lines:

    order allow,deny
    allow from all

to read:

    Require all granted
