Alice,

At this point, you need to re-install the OS or prepare to get your machine 
completely hacked and trashed.  With your permissions that badly screwed up, it 
is only a matter of time before someone finds it and has their own ghost server.

First, go pick up a System Admin book for Redhat

Second, READ IT, Especially the parts on permissions and changing users

Third, Re-install the OS

Fourth, read the CLI vs. HTTP differences on programming languages you are 
using.  Obviously Perl and PHP are going to give you the same errors when using 
the HTTP and will operate differently from the CLI unless running as the same 
user.

This might even help your schooling.  Hopefully your classroom exercises are 
further along then these basic principles, but if not I have severe doubts in 
anyone graduating with an MIS from Indiana University.
