Unfortunately, everything pretty much looks OK. The configuration for PHP must be in a conf.d/*.conf file or something, as it isn't in the httpd.conf file, but everything in httpd.conf seems right. The error in errors.log seems to be a simple OS access-denied message, not something to do with your server configuration, yet the file permissions are indeed correct. At this point, I would be trying moving things around, testing each layer of the hierarchy in turn (e.g. can the webserver serve a file test.html in the root? In webmail? In webmail/installer? can it serve index.html? What about index.php?) and taking care to clear browser cache, hold shift while pushing refresh, etc., and even perhaps look at the HTTP traffic to see what's going on and diagnose the problem. It's all fairly routine stuff once you've done it a few times, but fairly daunting if you haven't. The problem is probably simple, but not obvious, at least, not to an outsider having a quick glance.
Do check the permissions of the .htaccess files, too, since they won't show up in the ls output you gave (you need -A to see them). But I suspect they're fine; you usually get 500 errors if something is wrong with them. Cheers, Ben.
