Hello all,

Great looking board ya have here!

I have a problem with a cgi script not being allowed to create/write to a txt file.

The Scenario:

• A Linux/Apache server with SeLinux disabled (temporarily)
• A cgi script that creates a new txt file containing info submitted by a visitor (ipaddy_data.txt)

When I load the cgi in my browser, I get an "Internal Server Error" (otherwise I wouldn't be here. ). Looking at my error log tells me "Permission denied at line 13". This is where the script is supposed to create the file. (my $logpath = "data/$remote-addr_data.txt"; ). If I "rem" out everything to do with creating that file, it works great. No errors.

What have I done to try to fix this?

I have chowned all folders to root:root (cgi wouldn't work at all any other way I tried). I have chmoded all existing files to 777. And I have disabled SeLinux.

Now, what in the world am I not seeing here?

Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Also, if any more info is required, please ask.

Nevermind. Had a dumba$$ attack. Delete this thread if ya want
