[users@httpd] permissions on command in script

[Robert Bram <Ro...@colesmyer.com.au>]

Hi All,

I am using Windows Apache HTTP Server 2.0.55 with Cygwin on XP.

I am trying to run the following bash script in my C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\cgi-bin dir:

#!C:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe
PATH=/usr/bin
echo -e "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
searchResult=`su rbram -c "grep 'search term' //udportweb01/etech/eEmployment.log"`
echo "grep result: $searchResult"

When I run it, I get the following in error.log:

[Fri Oct 06 11:55:13 2006] [error] [client 192.168.39.40] grep: //udportweb01/etech/eEmployment.log: Permission denied, referer: http://localhost/searchLogs/logSearchScripts.html

However, I can run the command
su rbram -c "grep 'search term' //udportweb01/etech/eEmployment.log"
from Cygwin and it works.

Is there any way I can get Apache to run this command with the full permissions I have?

Kind Regards,

Rob
:)
