Problems with SAFE MODE

Hello everybody, i have some problems with php running in the safe mode. Every thong goes fine until i have to access the files on the server. The problem is that php (i guess) recognize the uid/gid of the script like -1/-1. I donŽt know what to do... I create a new user/group (apache/apache) for httpd swich to after initiated but nothing appens. I have slack 8.1, php 4.2.2, apache 2.0.39. hint: i was have the same problem in my windows machine (winxp pro, php 4.2.2, apache 2.0.40) but i switch the configuration from the sapi module to CGI mode and the problem was solved. any ideas ???? -- Best regards, Sebastian mailto:Naitsabes@coop5.com.ar
