I thought I did that but my have missed it. I tried to give boincadm as 
few as possible rights to the server and restrict it to the database. 
Sorry for that.

This isn't a bug, as in the thread you mentioned is correctly stated 
that the path to the apache pid is not in config.xml. If the 
upload/download would be disabled you wouldn't see the status page 
either ;) This is mainly for projects that use different servers for 
website and cgi scripts. Just add your path to the pid file and all is 
in the green.

Christian
