suPHP will execute the script as whatever user specified in the virtual host
configuration, or if you're using mod_userdir then it will execute things in
~/public_html as the user whose home directory it is. So you have one of two
options:
1. Enable mod_userdir and put your script in ~rpm/public_html directory.
2. Create a <Directory>, <Location> or <VirtualHost> block with
suPHP_UserGroup rpm rpm and place your php file there. ( This assumes "force"
or "paranoid" was used in configure, with mode "owner" you can just chown
rpm:rpm your script and it should work ).
