Nikos,

Seems like you're guessing a bit what the permission might be instead of 
understand what they should be ;-)

First figure out what is the webserver user/group, then figure out 
what's the PHP user/group (if you're running PHP-FPM). Your current 
setup is correct *only if* your webserver and PHP processes are running 
as _www group (not user).

You might also start with higher than needed permissions and then lower 
them as you figure out your setup.
chmod 775 $(find /path/to/neos/root -type d)
chmod 664 $(find /path/to/neos/root -type f)

M.
