    Despite setting all users public_html folders to 755 they seem to keep swapping back to 750 which gives a permission denied error when trying to view the site.

    Can anyone tell me a fix to stop this happening??

    I have this problem too.
    I had to set 777 to the home folder to make it work.
    But it is really not secure ?

    Anyone got a idea?

    Recompile apache without Enable File Protect and then ssh to the box and:

    cd /var/cpanel

    if there is a file there named fileprotect, remove it, then

    chmod 755 /home/*/public_html

    That should solve it.
