[imp] Re: Impossible to manage folders -- SOLVED!!!!!!!

[Hermann Gottschalk]

Hi folks,
the problem is solved!

It's because the apache is running changerooted!

I think these tipps are also helpful for Linux-users who run apache 
changerooted.

(Supposing httpd ist changerooted in /var/www)

First You have to create a directory /var/www/dev an start your syslogd
with "syslogd -a /var/www/dev/log" so php is able to log propper to the
syslogd. That makes debugging much easier. 

Than the libc-client.a-functions depend on the access to local
passwd-files. In the case of OpenBSD you have to create /var/www/etc an in there a
master.passwd with the user-entry of the user who runs httpd. Here is
the user www. Than you have to create the pwd.db:
#> pwd_mkdb -d /var/www/etc /var/www/etc/master.passwd

THAT'S ALL!!!

I don't know, why libc-client.a absolutely needs the verification of the
existance of www in pwd.db but it does!


HAPPY EASTER!
Hermann
