Hi all,

One final problem I think for my upgrade to 6.0.5: wwsympa fails with

Jul 12 09:58:50 theweaa1 wwsympa[10978]:
Upgrade::data_structure_uptodate() Unable to
open /home/sympa/etc/data_structure.version : Permission denied

It appears that suexec is not functioning properly.

The sympa documentation refers to 'User' and 'Group' directives, but
these are not available in apache2. In debian I have installed
apache2-suexec-custom, enabled suexec module and defined SuexecUserGroup
in the virtual host site definition, but still it does not work, even
after a full restart.

What am I missing, please?

Thanks.

Nick
