Ubuntu apach2 because search permissions are missing on a component of the path

"because search permissions are missing on a component of the path" seems to be a problem which happens from time to time. No suggested solution here did work so far so I a have to ask again what could I check if I get the above error.

namei --modes ./index.html 
f: ./index.html
 drwxr-sr-x .
 -rw-r--r-- index.html

on an Ubuntu 20.04

The 644 permissions are likely causing the issue. Set them to 755 and, if necessary, restart Apache:

sudo chmod 755 /path/to/source
sudo service apache2 restart

That should resolve the problem.
