The error message is unambiguous:

  This is not a Zope problem but a problem with the permission in your
  file system. For directories, the 'x' (which means 'searchable' in this
  context) permission is also necessary to access a directories content.

  Maybe, that is your problem.

If not, become the user, Zope runs as (this means "nobody" (or
the user you specified at installation time), in case,
you start Zope as "root"!) and as this user try to read the file
given above.
