php file uploads owned by apache

[atinoco]

Greetings all

I'm fine tuning our linux box that we got at serverbeach, one of the issues that we noticed was that when a file was uploaded via php with a program like joomla, the file owner was apache, and not the plesk user, this made it impossible for our user to work with the files via ftp.

looking around i noticed that there a php module that can fix my problem called mod_suphp

followed this guide but can't get it to work, files are still owned by apache after upload, any ideas?

Will work, I can guarantee.
The one you pointed is incomplete.

When running PHP via mod_php, then all scripts are run as the webserver user (apache). Plesk 9 adds to option to run PHP via FastCGI, which runs the scripts as the file owner.
