    This topic is related to virtualhosts, and allowing the SuexecUserGroup directive in the <Directory></Directory> tags.

    By default apache wont allow this (which is a problem in my circumstance), I did some research and forum surfing and I finally came to this apache page:

    http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-dev/200308.mbox/%3C20030901003301.GA23752@castlerea.stdlib.net.%3E

    I cant seem to download the file attached their which are the supposed patch, and even if I could get them downloaded, I have no idea how I would apply the patch!

    Any assistance in applying this patch to my Debian Etch Server, would be greatly appreciated.

    Rather than patching, it may be easier to use mod_proxy to proxy that directory through to a different vhost that has the appropriate SuExecUserGroup set for the whole vhost.

    You would end up with the same result but with the added complexity of mod_proxy. Of course, that solution comes without the added complexity of patching and compiling Apache yourself so I think, in the end, you would be ahead.
