Probably two things:
* Apache needs directory access permissions (x) on each path component
in /home/kikinovak/public_html. They are probably missing
on /home/kikinovak:
chmod +x /home/kikinovak
I'll let you think about the security implications ;).
* If you are using SELinux, you need to make sure the right context is
set for /home/kikinovak/public_html. You can see the current context
with "ls -Z", e.g.:
---
$ ls -dZ public_html
drwxrwxr-x daniel daniel user_u:object_r:user_home_t public_html
---
You can set the proper context (httpd_sys_content_t or
httpd_user_content_t) with chcon:
---
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_t public_html
---
or restorecon (since this directory should already be in the predefined
contexts):
/sbin/restorecon -R public_html
