this is the way it needs to be (how filesistem permissions is
implemented)
you need to give it browse permissions chmod rwx so you can do ls -la
(with your permissions settings ls can't really read inside the dir )
This is how you can reproduce your issue
mariuz@borkstationX64:/tmp$ mkdir -p foo/bar
mariuz@borkstationX64:/tmp$ mkdir chmod 644 foo/bar
mkdir: cannot create directory `foo/bar': File exists
mariuz@borkstationX64:/tmp$ chmod 644 foo
mariuz@borkstationX64:/tmp$ ls -lah foo/bar
ls: cannot access foo/bar: Permission denied
mariuz@borkstationX64:/tmp$ ls -lah foo
ls: cannot access foo/bar: Permission denied
ls: cannot access foo/.: Permission denied
ls: cannot access foo/..: Permission denied
