File Ownership Problem

[jyeung]

Hello,

I am currently running an Apache server with PHP and phpSuExec. Recently, a friend of mine has uploaded a script that includes an editor for creating and modifying PHP scripts.

Now, since new files are created as nobody, phpSuExec returns an Internal Server Error message. Until I manually chown the files from shell to the proper user, the pages don't work.

This obviously is a problem - is there any way to get around this or make it work?

Help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

Thanks!

with phpsuexec the files shouldnt be created as nobody, but rather as whoever is running the php script that creates the new files.

Hmm..touch("test.inc"); creates the file properly....but that script doesn't.

Guess it's the script....
