Pointing your browser to

http://YOURSITE/verifyperms.php

should output

Scanning: YOUR_OSSN_INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY
No permission problems found.

If not, it will output detailed information about what has to be fixed and which way it has to be fixed.

Usually files need 644, and directories need 755
Make sure that files and directories are owned by the webserver process.
Run the verifyperms.php utility which comes bundled with the system-info component to verify.
