No the above statement actually prevent access, am I correct?

Thanks folks, SOLVED!

Another lesson learned.
I went for easy way out, tar.gz /var/* directory copy it to another machine.

Mistake #1
Extracted the file on the other machine as user (mistake #1) all the owner ship of file got changed to joseph:joseph

Mistake #2 
I use "meld" to compare the directors and copy missing files and directories to the destination machine. Meld - does not preserve owner-ship either.

The reason it didn't work as .htaccess file were changed to owner ship root:root and it should be apache:apache.
So the solution was to use "rsync -av" it preserver owner ship and permission :-/

Another lessor learned!
