  Modified:    htdocs/manual/mod  mod_cgi.html
  Log:
  Clarify that the ScriptLog is opened by the child processes so
  permissions need to be set appropriately.  Perhaps wouldn't hurt
  to put an error in the error_log if it can't be opened.

  ! <P>This log will be opened as the user the child processes run as,
  ! ie. the user specified in the main <A HREF="core.html#User">User</A>
  ! directive.  This means that either the directory the script log is
  ! in needs to be writable by that user or the file needs to be manually
  ! created and set to be writable by that user.  If you place the
  ! script log in your main logs directory, do <STRONG>NOT</STRONG>
  ! change the directory permissions to make it writable by the user
  ! the child processes run as.</P>
