RE: [cobalt-users] CGI permission strangeness

["Michael Combe" <mcombe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Did you ever get an error message of "UID of script userid less than
configured minimum" when you first installed this script?  I think I have
the same script on my box and I can't get it to work.  Is the script from
BigNoseBird?

Hi Tervor!

Take a look at the user of the script - is it admin or httpd? Maybe changing
that already helps. Otherwise you'll have to go deeper into the CGI you use
(Perl?) and take a look at the open commands.

Bye,

Niko
