What do you mean by 'no-one can see the file'? Via a browser or in the command line?
At command line level, root should be able to see everything, and with 644 perms (r_wr__r__) the files should be visible to everyone.
Have you added (accidentally) acls to some of the files? Try doing
'getfacl <filename>' as xtzuser and see if it reports an acl.
I guess the other poss is some messed up SELinux settings.
