Hi Ben,

You need to have wwsympa.fcgi run as 'sympa' user.
Therefore you have 2 options :
* (default one) : when wwsympa.fcgi is installed it is owned by 'sympa'
and has the SetUID bit set. You will probably need to install the perl-suidperl
(see http://listes.cru.fr/wws/arc/sympa-users/2002-10/msg00017.html)

* Setting an Apache virtualhost running with 'sympa' uid
(see http://listes.cru.fr/sympa/fom-serve/cache/84.html)

What stikes me is the 'Invalid argument' error message, I dont quite understand...

Ok, so I checked a couple of things....
-Sympa has access to spool, and should be able to write in msg directory
-wwsympa.fcgi is owned by root (I tried owned it by apache, does the same thing)
-Since Apache is very restrictive when you install RH, maybe the problem is there, but I didn't find anything.
