The official documentation can be seen here.

Put right permission – owner/group to public_html folder – CPanel

I’m new to WHM, cPanel, and CentOS.

I install WHM then create an account for domain app.example.com and user peter
I point the domain name to right IP address but when I run my website app.example.com I got HTTP ERROR 500

Via SSH I log into the server and I find my previous uploaded code into 

/home/peter/public_html

Then I run command sudo chown -R peter:peter /home/peter/public_html
and when I look at folders permission and owner they looks like:
enter image description here

I think my HTTP ERROR 500 is about user permission.

Can please help me to add right privileges to a user or what I need to do to my public_html folder be visible to the world (at browser).

What I need to do?

    The best thing to know if it’s a permissions problem, a bug in the programming of the web application or to see what really happens, is that you look at the log file of the web server (apache, nginx, the one you use). The log will give you more clues. Could you copy the log output when the error occurs?

    It seems some required extensions were not activate or had been removed from your VPS. You should check and install/activate them. Then you can test your website again.
    P.S: Sorry for my bad english
