I'm running Joomla 1.5 on a Webfusion VPS 2.0 hosted shared server running Ubuntu 6.06, Apache 2.0.55, PHP 5.1.2 and Plesk 8.3.
I want to use suEXEC to help with the permission issues associated with PHP based CMS packages such as Joomla. I know that mod_suxec is already running on the server and I have root access.
Can anyone point me towards an idiot's guide to setting up and using SuEXEC with my domain? I've looked at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/suexec.html but I don't understand enough to work from this. I believe that I need to create a vhosts.conf file (which I'm okay with) but not exactly what needs to be in it in addition to the SuexecUserGroup directive or what the syntax should be. Is this all I need or is there more to it?
Much of the advice I have read elsewhere assumes a certain directory structure which isn't the same as my server. Given my limited linux experience I'm struggling top 'convert' much of the other advice to fit my situation.
Any help or advice would be very helpful
Thanks
