We are moving all of our client data over to a Network Appliances NFS Toaster. The problem is that when the server is started, and there are no log files for a virtual the server creates them right away when the owning UID is still 0. After the switch to the 'real' UID the server can no longer write to the files. This isn't really an apache problem per se but I thought that it may be something you wanted to look at in the future if it's a simple procedural change within the code. >How-To-Repeat: If you really needed to I could probably find a way to demonstrate it to you. Just email me. >Fix: Well, just as an in-house kludge, I went into the source and added a chown(2) after all the log file opens, this wouldn't be a fix though >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
