[ome-users] Configuration Guide for mod_python (production)

[Paulo Almeida]

Hi Bernie,

If you haven't tried it yet, use:

chown apache:apache /home/omero/weblog

Judging by what you sent, it seems that your web server is running as 
user 'apache'. If that doesn't work, you can look in your apache 
configuration file(s) for the user, or try:

cat /etc/passwd 

and see if it's obvious which one is the web server. In Debian systems, for 
instance, the default user is 'www-data' .

Good luck,
Paulo
