you're obviously being deliberately vague and that makes suggestions
much harder but things to check first...

1 - selinux (are there messages in /var/log/messages that indicate
denied access?)

2 - httpd runs as user apache and user apache might not have access into
the directories.
    try running chmod o+x on the directory so that 'others' can descend
into the
    directory where your files are stored. You might have other
subdirectories needing
    a similar change of permissions too.

3 - /var/log/httpd/error_log is your friend
