Apache File Security Defaults

[jakeWSYSA]

Hi,
I made the mistake of running the following command:

chown -R apache:apache /var/www*

How can I setup the permissions correctly?

I think the apache2 process is running as apache, why do i get a permission error in the log file.

Thanks.

Hello jakeWSYSA,

I emerged apache2 yesterday.

In my box, all directories under /var/www have owner root, group root, permissions drwxr-xr-x.
All files under /var/www have owner root, group root, permissions drw-r--r--.

Bye
