In order for apache to be able to access the directory, you must have a
minimum of permissions 0711 on all directories above the 'public_html'
directory.  'public_html' must be at least 0755 permission, and all files
underneath need to be at least 644.

(0711 == user read / write / execute, group execute, other execute
0755 == user read / write / execute, group read / execute, other read /
execute
0644 == user read / write, group read, other read).

If you still have problems beyond that, take a look at the error_log file
under /var/log/httpd that apache uses.
