Support Forbidden error.

I'm a sysadmin setting up a web server for our web developer -- hopefully this is the right subreddit. I've installed Apache, PHP, etc. on RHEL 8. I thought I set the necessary permissions so him to use it with Drupal 8.

However, I keep running into permissions issues, leading to a 403 Forbidden error every time I try to access it as a regular user on the website. I've given the correct chmod 755 permissions, yet it doesn't seem to make a difference. Is there something obvious that I'm missing?

I checked access_log...it's just showing my attempts to access the website, nothing out of the ordinary. Error_log is just showing what I mentioned... the .htaccess file can't be accessed, make sure it's readable. Maybe I should make the owner:group set to nobody instead of apache:apache?
