Apache normally runs as apache:apache. Joomla is just a PHP application
running under Apache, so if you're using mod_php, Apache is what will
actually be doing the reading and writing of the files and the
apache:apache user should have rwx access to the entire tree.

If you're running PHP-FPM, then the user that PHP is running as should
have own the tree and have rwx access to it, while Apache should have
at least r-x access to the tree. You could do that by putting the PHP
user in the apache group, giving ownership of the tree to the PHP user
and giving group r-x privileges:

	useradd -d /path/to/website -g apache phpuser
	cd /path/to/website
	chown -R phpuser:apache *
	chmod -R 750 *

or something like that. Also watch out for selinux denials. "Here be
dragons!"
