You need the e(x)ecute permission set also so the directory can be
accessed/entered.

	chmod ug+x templates users

I missed the thread leading up to this so I'll just toss in that the
files in these two directories also need to be writeable by the
webserver user (apache).

Rogelio ...

The installation instructions are not 100% accurate.

This worked for me, as root:

chown nobody:nogroup templates users
chmod 777 templates users

I believe execute capability is necessary for directories, contrary 
to intuition.

Also, I altered the permissions of the contents of directory "users", 
but I do not know if that was necessary.

That depends entirely on what your Apache is running under. The RedHat
installs of 7.0 and above runs Apache as the apache user. I know that
previous distros of Redhat uses nobody.nobody. Certainly, other Unix
platforms defaults to nobody.nobody.

That's the traditional design of UNIX platforms, yes. You can probably
dig up the esoteria somewhere from the original designers on why. It
has slipped my mind.
