I didn't see you confirm that the apache service is running as apache, try changing the permissions so world has read/write permissions (777) on the directory, and see if that helps? Also, are you sure that apache isn't running in a chroot environment? If you have specified the full path in the configuration, and apache is chroot'd, it will cause issues there. -- Jonathan Angliss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Posting Hints: http://www.squirrelmail.org/wiki/en_US/MailingListPostingGuidelines ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
