    Hello,

    I need to have the php files on my server run as the user instead of nobody so I tried to enable suphp. Once I recompile Apache and enable suphp, no php scripts work (500 error). I belive the correct options are checked to run php as cgi. The error is "Premature end of script headers". I've read some previous posts on this exact problem however I have not yet been able to get it to work. The server is OS is CentOS 5 running the release version of cpanel usine Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.2.5.

    Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated!

    I think checking chmod on files might be what you seek.

    When Apache is compiled with SuPhp security feature you can't send php commands via the .htaccess file. Go to: http://www.suphp.org/FAQ.html and read their FAQ and browse their site for more information about other SuPhp issues. You also need to read this HowTo article at: http://servertune.com/kbase/?View=entry&EntryID=184

    Hope this helps

    Thanks for the suggestions!

    I've tried using chmod before but since it is a different owner, it gives me an error.
    It's not a .htaccess problem either. I will review the suPHP faq but I was hoping someone knew a quick fix for this problem.

    Thanks.

    As said above, the cause of this in 99% of cases is either:

    • the file permissions allow write to group or other, or the directory they are in has write permission to group or other;
    • or, the file is owned by someone other than the account the file is in;
    • or, there is a php_* directive in the .htaccess file. They have to be moved into a php.ini file.


    I'd triple check each of these just to be sure.
