what is nothing?
blank page?
this would mean there is an error which could be find in the error-log.

this can be enough. it depends on teh user and the usergroup. and it 
depends how you access files.

1. the apache user needs to have read and write access, so 600(700) 
could be enough if all files(directory) belong to the apache user 
(www-data:www-data)

2. if you access the files in another way than the TYPO3-backend 
(FTP,SSH,...) you need to share the files between these two users apache 
and the access-user. if these user have the same primary group the 
rights could be 660(770), if not you need the rights to be 666(777)
