Thanks, looks a little beyond my capabilities and this box is in production, a 
little scary for me. It's running @Home 2.7 and was working just fine, I'm not 
sure what changed. If anyone would be brave enough to take a look I'll supply 
the details, thanks, Mark.

    How would I correct this? Thanks, Mark. 

  That bit of code is trying to read the actual voice mail file. The Linux 
permissions do not allow it.

  Something is broken somewhere. Here is what I think may be at fault:

  The web server is setup to run as the user "http" and asterisk is setup to 
run as the user "asterisk".

  As root run "ps -ef | grep http". If the httpd processes are running as 
"apache" or "httpd"  (first column) then you need to change 
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and set the User and Group option in that file. This 
may give problems with other web sites if the server is running other webs so 
make sure you test.

  Alternatively we would need to change the permissions on the voice mail files 
and directories. I'm not sure about this, but it may be possible to change the 
permissions that Asterisk puts on these files and directories. Although you can 
make manual changes to the permissions you want new mail boxes and messages to 
be created with permissions that allow the web server to continue running as 
"httpd" or "apache".
