click expand...

you forgot leading /. "volumes/sites" refers relative path, namely
"/users/myname/sites/volumes/sites".

why want move folder? might better off creating sym link folder. in /users/myname create sym link follows...
cd /users/myname
mv sites notsites
ln -s /volumes/sites sites

have sym link pointing /volumes/sites. not work unless apache config or .htacess contains following...

options followsymlinks
