User in www-data group can't view directory
I've added a user (test) to the group www-data with the following command:
sudo usermod -a -G www-data test
When I try to view a directory with permissions 744, it says Server returned empty listing for directory (lack of permission).
What am I doing wrong?

you must give execute permissions on the directory for the group as well. The execute bit (on directories) allows / permits listings. so just do a
chmod g+x /path/to/your/dir
