If you cannot "su" to another user, can you at least login into another user (from the console of by ssh) and do you have error messages in /var/log/messages?

Vincent, can you send me your httpd.conf and the files that you are having problem with? It's really a strange bug, it must be such a small minor detail...

It looks like a SuExec problem. Either remove apache-suexec or chown nobody.nobody these files. Give me some news!

[expert] apache help needed!!!
I'm having some serious problems with apache and they just started today... In my error_log file I keep getting: httpd: exec of /bin/sh failed, reason: Permission denied (errno = 13) In a SSI file (banner.shtml). It won't run any of my other CGI scripts either, nor will PHP include statements work either. Does anyone know what might be going on here? It was all working yesterday and now it isn't and I haven't touched anything. I'm extremely confused as to why this won't work! For the PHP3 includes, if it's a local file (ie. include("/home/httpd/html/text/footer.txt");) it works fine, but if it's something like include("http://bla.bla/whatever.php3"); it doesn't work anymore. I'm seriously confused here. I think it's a permission problem, but I don't understand why it hasn't happened before then. Everything is owned by root.root and the pages come up ok if I view them by themselves, but as includes they don't work anymore. I'm using the latest AES RPMs. Help! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], OpenPGP key available on www.keyserver.net Freezer Burn BBS: telnet://bbs.freezer-burn.org .
