Hi Malcolm,

First off, thanks for taking the time to help out.

I had an inkling that it was a permission problem, so I decided to remove
everything and start again. After creating a new user and creating the
folders as that user (lets call the user "bob") I still get the same issue.
I have uploaded all my files via FTP (logged in as the user "bob"). Could
the fact that I am using FTP cause the problem?

Here is the result of the "ls -l settings.py":

-rw------- 1 bob bob 1804 Oct 15 22:08 settings.py

Now if I manually change the CHMOD to 775 it resolved the problem, but this
doesn't explain why when the file is added it does not have the proper CHMOD
does it?

How would I make the webserver's (Apache2) group be the owner of the file?
Would I do something like:

usermod apache -g mygroup

Im not sure which user Apache is.

Thanks a ton for your help and your time,
Dana

That would suggest a permissions problem: maybe the webserver doesn't
