I have the exact same problem on Ubuntu hardy with suphp-common 0.6.2-2ubuntu1 and I can confirm that ...
>I've changed it to root:root and re-installed the latest packages and it >now PHP appears to work fine. ... chowning /var/www and any further intermediate directory from www-data to root "solves" the problem. Of course this is no real solution but merely a workaround. The user configured as webserver_user in /etc/suphp/suphp.conf has to be allowed as directory owner! I guess the core bug is in the upstream, but suphp.org already is at 0.6.3. Btw., why do all the su solutions (including suexec) always think they know better what's good or bad than the admin? My customer webserver uses ACLs and suexec and suphp to separate the customers 100%, but I have to weaken suexec's code to make it work ;-)) Regards Christoph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
