Apache config error - help?
Anyone with a keen eye for mistakes around? I'm trying to do some work on my Apache server (Win32) without much luck:

Code:
<IfModule alias_module>
    #
    # Redirect: Allows you to tell clients about documents that used to 
    # exist in your server's namespace, but do not anymore. The client 
    # will make a new request for the document at its new location.
    # Example:
    # Redirect permanent /foo http://Zoidberg/bar
    #
    # Alias: Maps web paths into filesystem paths and is used to
    # access content that does not live under the DocumentRoot.
    # Example:
    # Alias /webpath /full/filesystem/path
    #
    # If you include a trailing / on /webpath then the server will
    # require it to be present in the URL.  You will also likely
    # need to provide a <Directory> section to allow access to
    # the filesystem path.

<Directory "C:/Documents and Settings/Admin/My Documents">
Alias /emptytest1 /foldertest/test2
</Directory>
Hopefully it seems quite simple to see what I'm trying to do - I'm trying to point http://server/emptytest1 to C:/Do'Settings/Admin/MyDocuments/foldertest/test2

However, every time I try and restart the server with this config, it reports an error until I remove the "Alias /" line - the <Dir> and </Dir> lines are fine.

Any ideas?
