Help with file permission?



Some advise would be appreciated!

I am trying to create a file in the /tmp1 directory using the following
script:

<?php

system("touch /tmp1/test2.txt");

?>

The web server is running as user apache.

I made apache the owner of the /tmp1 directory and it has 777
permisions. If I run the command as shell user apache it works fine.

the box is running Debian kernel 2.6.9-11.ELsmp

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Moshe
