It's running as "apache". Try "chown -r apache [spool]".

Apache and PHP can be configured in many ways. mod_php is usually the
default/recommended choice. In this configuration, PHP runs as the same
user/group as apache.

DL has two parts you need to care about: the htdocs directory
(/var/www/vhosts/<my_domain>/httpdocs/dl in your case) and the spool
(/var/spool/dl).

htdocs needs to be readable _only_. By the error that you're getting,
this is already readable so that's fine.

The spool needs to readable _and_ writable as well by the apache user.
A "chown -r apache /var/spool/dl" should do it.

I think I suggested a chgrp before (which is what I usually do), but
then you should look into which group apache is running at (Group line
in the apache configuration file in the simplest case). Generally on
Debian/Ubuntu is www-data, on RedHat/Centos you need to check.
