I think you're misunderstanding this thread, I'm not the one who have problems 
with Apache and the DocumentRoot.
My Apache works perfectly ;-)

Actually, that's not really true. If you have 755 permission on the directory, 
any user could read on it, nobody, apache or whatever.
I agree that is a good idea to set nobody or apache as a group. Above was just 
a comment ;-)

Try giving 755 to the directory and change the group:
chown ali. public_html/ 
Apache will be able to read on it :-)

Anyway, Nirav, the guy with the Apache problem, wrote that he have checked all 
permission issue.
