I created a virtual directory, in windows c:/tshirtshop and configured the httpd file
in this way:

____________________________________________________________________
<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 [localhost...]

#
# 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.
Alias /tshirtshop/ "C:/tshirtshop/"
Alias /tshirtshop/ "C:/tshirtshop"

#
# ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
# ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that
# documents in the target directory are treated as applications and
# run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the
# client. The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias
# directives as to Alias.
#
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/cgi-bin/"
___________________________________________________________________


but when I try to open the file test.php in the browser, this message appears:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /tshirtshop/test.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument
to handle the request.

I gave permission to everyone in the file.
Could somebody, please tell me what's wrong?
Thank you.

I think you'll need either one or the other variant of the alias for /tshirtshop/ -- either with or without the / -- most likely with the slash.

Check out this part of the instructions -- in addition to making sure filesystems permissions are correct (which it sounds like you have done), you'll need to explicitly declare who has access using Allow, Deny and Order directives.
