[ale] PHP help

[Yu, Jerry]

the dir should be 777, instead of 666, unless '666' is simply your shorthand
meaning you have all directories/files up-for-grab-for-all.

btw, in case youi are not from the unix/linux world, the execution bit on a
directory allows you to traverse it.

all directories and files are 666 all the way to the root.
Owned by same user as apache is running. php is apache module not cgi.
I just added "AllowOverride", but then took it out. same problem.
looks like rebooting apache caused the problem.
I updated this debian box yesterday.
I just did a search for this problem on google.
I am seeing a lot of live sites having this problem.
must be a bug in something .....

open for suggestions

thanks,
Tomas

Without knowing what you did to httpd.conf, it's hard to say but..  This
seems like a permissions or ownership problem. Php should run as the same
user apache is configured to run as, and if that user doesn't have rights to
read the file (or the directory) then, the opening of includes will fail.

what are the flags and ownership of 'start.php'?
