OK, I can see that that would fix the problem. I initially presumed that running it as root would produce a directory that was owner/group root. On a slightly different note, upgrading pdbv on another box comes up with the slightly different permissions problem that the directory /var/www/pdbv is already owner/group root so user nobody has no rights to change the files. When I go to run pdbv as root I get a message: "Running pdbv as root jeopardizes your system security, you should not do that." As I do not want my system security to be jeopardized there is no way I'm going to want to run this as root even once is there? Stephen Quinney
