Permission denied reading file from a different domain on the same box

J

John West

Guest
domain1.com and domain2.com both live on the same plesk 9.5 box:

/var/www/vhosts/domain1.com/
/var/www/vhosts/domain2.com/

A perl script on domain2.com is failing with a permission denied error when it tries to read the following file:

/var/www/vhosts/domain1.com/httpdocs/statusfile.txt (-rw-rw-rw- domain1user : psacln)

The code that fails is:

if (open (APPSEN,"</var/www/vhosts/domain1.com/httpdocs/statusfile.txt"))
{
...
}
else
{
&HtmlDie ("Error opening status file on domain1: $!");
}

"$!" is "Permission denied"

How do I get this to work?

Thanks.
