OK, here's the deal: Webserver went down due to too many httpd requests. Talked to support, they suggested I upgrade from Dedicated I to Dedicated III account. In the meantime, they got our Dedicated I server up and running with a RAM upgrade. Then I get the following message from my CGI scripts: "scgiwrap: Caller must be uid 99"

Called support again, and they fixed it with the following message:

"I was working on your server a short time ago and noticed that there were many errors being logged in the apache error log. ALl of them regarding a segfault, probably something php related. I re-compiled php and apache and the server seems to be working much better at the moment."

Everything up and running fine.

Then they switched me to the Dedicated III server. Same problem again: "scgiwrap: Caller must be uid 99"

Spent most of the night last night on the phone with support to no avail, other than the following email:

"I have verified with test script and its working fine for me."

Tried re-upping my scripts again, all in ASCI mode, checked permissions, etc etc, all to no avail.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Nope, nothing helped. Something about that directory that just wouldn't hold it's permissions for whatever reason. Ended up dumping everything into a new directory.

Not sure. It was a CGI script elsewhere that wrote static pages into said directory. Dedicated support would fix one thing, which would seem to work until I added new static pages. Then it would all break again.

I just created a new directory elsewhere in public_html, set it's premissions, and it seems to work. Even tried deleting those old directories and creating new ones with the correct permissions to no avail.
