I am new to php and drupal. After i completed work on site in locally i run it but shows below error in log/error.log

Permission denied: [client 127.0.0.1:37590] AH00529: /home/user/public_html/domainname.com/public/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable and that '/home/user/public_html/domainname.com/public/' is executable

I gave 777 permission to public folder below like this chmod -R 777 public/

after i googled i changed the permission to .htaccess file chmod 644 .htaccess then I gave permission to parentdirectory (public) folder chmod 755 public/

then again i installed new one locally(new site) but it shows the same error

but still it shows same error. Can any one help me from this?

Open the httpd.conf (or apache2.conf) file and search for the User and Group directives. The values here refer to the user/group which will be used for Apache server.

Next, go to /home/user/public_html (or /home/user/public_html/domainname.com whichever is the DOCUMENT_ROOT) and do this:

sudo chown -R USER:GROUP ./

where USER and GROUP are the values of User and Group directives from above. Once that is done, set the htaccess file permissions to 0644 and try.
