run the following oneline (everything in the same line, just replace the 
path with the real one)

apconf_path=/path/myapache/myapache.conf; while [ "$apconf_path" != "/" 
]; do ls -ld "$apconf_path"; apconf_path=$(dirname "$apconf_path"); done;

the result could look something like:
-rw-r----- 1 user user 47 Jan 21  2025 /path/myapache/myapache.conf
drwxr-xr-x 1 user user 114 Apr 14 11:08 /path/myapache
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6044 May 15 21:16 /path

the wwwrun user should have access to go into each directory, so all of 
them needs to be x, the file itself needs to be r for the wwwrun user.

There is few options:
1. on all directories in the path "chmod o+x /path/to/dir" and the file 
itself "chmod o+r /path/myapache/myapache.conf"
2. You change the group to wwwrun and ensure that the paths all parts 
has g+x for directories and g+r for the file itself.
3. You make wwwrun to be member of your user group.

The "simplest" is option 1.
