On apache server I configured tomcat as proxy server that serves mp3 and mp4 from a folder named content. I have given 0755 permission recursively to all media files and changed owner group to root recursively. Media content is played on Firefox but not chrome and edge browser. I have added media type to httpd.conf file also.

AddType video/ogg .ogv
AddType video/mp4 .mp4
AddType video/webm .webm
Still not working. It says forbidden. You don't have permission to access folder on this server.403 error

What I have tried:

AddType video/ogg .ogv
AddType video/mp4 .mp4
AddType video/webm .webm
