datadir still bad on 777? - Stephen - 01-13-2010

I can only seem to run with a datadir at /tmp/opendoc (or /tmp/anything )
I've ensured the directory is 777 and owned by apache (which is running the webserver daemon) - I'm not sure what the issue is. I have other apps which write fine to other directories (Gallery, etc) owned by apache and running 755 or 777.
Anyone?

What does your apache error log show?

There is nothing in the error log about it. It's not apache complaining it's something to do with the check within opendocman.
What produces my erorr is in index.php:
if(!is_dir($GLOBALS['CONFIG']['dataDir']) || !is_writeable($GLOBALS['CONFIG']['dataDir']))
{
echo "<font color=red>There is a problem with your dataDir. Check to make sure it exists and is writeable</font>";
exit;
however my config.php has this:
'dataDir' => '/usr/opendoc/',
and that directory is 777;
drwxrwxrwx 2 apache psacln 4096 Jul 16 06:49 opendoc
I have found that only under /tmp can I post the datadir but that will be deleted on any reboot.
(oh I am running on a Fedora Core 1; shared hosting server. Shouldn't matter but I'll mention.)

Seems I figured it out. PLESK visrtual hosting software has some limitation on where you can place your datadirs; I moved about here and there and finally found an acceptable place to move the datadir and it works fine now.
Thanks
