It's probably because, by default, only the root user has access to vfat partitions.
Do a search in the archives to locate what options you have to pass via fstab to get apache to have read / write privileges. If this is a production site, and you are running linux, I really would not suggest putting files on a fat32 partition anyways -- you are much better off with either ext2, ext3, reiserfs, or any of the large number of *nix filesystems.
