Re: Can I have some help please?

There are 6 httpd threads running (1 root and 5 scott).

I had a previous sql-ledger in /usr/local/www/sql-ledger and only this has a members directory. The current /usr/local/sql-ledger has none...if it should then why hasn't this come from the install?

There is more than one httpd file but I don't think this is a problem because when I run httpd -v it returns the correct apache version.

Unfortunately, this is a stand alone system and I have nothing to compare it. I really love using SQL Ledger but the installation process is one of the worse I have seen in Linux (I have installed this 3 times over the last year and always have major problems)

Any other ideas?

Scott

  Scott;

  Well, that sure has 'scott' al over ;-)

  Still, if you do a 

  ps auxw

  does it show httpd running as 'scott'?

  And is the members file really there? (just asking.....)
  Any chance that there is more than 1 httpd.conf file?
  Another line of thought may be to compare this setup with other internal sites you have. If you have another one, I would try looking for differences. If not I would make another one just to see if it works.

 Scott; It should be clearer, but it's not :-( (unfortunately). Some things tothink about: My web server runs as user 'nobody' and I have these permissions: /usr/local/sql-ledger drwxr-xr-x    2 nobody   nobody       4096 Sep 18 17:08 users drwxrwxr-x    3 nobody   nobody       4096 Jun  9 17:01 templates /usr/local/sql-ledger/users -rw-r--r--    1 nobody   nobody       3778 Jun 12 09:32 members The file 'is' there of course? So in your case these would have to be chown and chgrp to 'Apache' not'scott' unless your web server is now really running as user 'scott'. Ifyou do aps auxw do you see 'Apache' or 'scott' (or something else) as the owner of theprocess? My httpd permissions are: -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       282774 Jun 19 13:28 /usr/sbin/httpd In httpd.conf I have (check that you are pointing to the right one whenstarting httpd?)

What I don't have is thesuEXEC mechanism enabled. Do you need it for something else? I also do nothave port 443, just 80. I use sql-ledger internally.Another comment is that I am running an older version than you because line90 for me is "    if ($ENV{HTTP_USER_AGENT}) {" which is probably not whatyou have. I'm using 1.8.4. I'm also using Apache 1.3.x not 2.0.x.So unfortunately my only advice right now is to re-check the configurationsand try again.MiguelScott Taylor wrote:

s and try to get some more detail of what is happening. I doesthough look like a fiel permission problem.
