Try to set the correct Home in 

[Kernel/Config.pm]

    $Self->{Home} = '/real/path/to/your/otrs/';

[...]

It's not the easy way to set it up on an unknown environment (but possible
if you have enough infos, just follow the INSTALL file an replace the 
otrs user with the webaccount user).

Daniel, if you want to set it up for lot of people, the I would use
mod_perl (precompiled perl modules / really _fast_). But then you
also shoud have an dedicated server (IMO).
