Sure enough, fiddling with a few umask and permissions issues fixed this
problem. Sorry to waste bandwidth. However, perhaps I can add something
to all of this.

I added a configure switch --with-suexec-umask=002 and recompiled
apache. That didn't solve the problem, but I left it in (can someone
confirm or deny that this has any relevance to the permissions problem?).

Then I modified apache to run as the group that my development team uses.

The system umask is, and has been for a week, 002.

With all of those configurations, it finally worked. I guess I lost
focus of the umask/permissions issue too quickly.

Thanks,

Mark
