[freeside] can't configure after installation.

[Rick Bragg]

Thanks Randall, That seemed to get me a bit further! It was a permission 
problem with the global-asa

Now I am running into this in my apache error log:

------------
[Wed Jul 16 14:05:46 2003] [error] [asp] [20465] [error] Not running uid 
freeside! at /usr/local/etc/freeside/asp-global//global.asa line 62 <--> 
, /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Apache/ASP.pm line 1488
[Wed Jul 16 14:05:46 2003] [error] [asp] [20465] [error] Can't call

/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Apache/ASP.
pm line 1488

here is my virtual host entry: (I will use SSL after I get this working)
------------
<VirtualHost 192.168.0.12:80>
     User freeside
     Group freeside
     ServerAdmin webmaster at gmnet.net
     DocumentRoot /var/www/freeside.gmnet.net/htdocs
     ServerName freeside.gmnet.net
     ErrorLog /var/www/freeside.gmnet.net/logs/error_log
     CustomLog /var/www/freeside.gmnet.net/logs/access_log common
     PerlModule Apache::ASP
     <Directory /var/www/freeside.gmnet.net/htdocs/freeside-asp>
         <Files ~ (\.cgi)>
             AddHandler perl-script .cgi
             PerlHandler Apache::ASP
         </Files>
         <Perl>
             $MLDBM::RemoveTaint = 1;
         </Perl>
         PerlSetVar Global /usr/local/etc/freeside/asp-global/
         PerlSetVar Debug 2
     </Directory>
     <Directory /var/www/freeside.gmnet.net/htdocs/freeside-asp>
         AuthName Freeside
         AuthType Basic
         AuthUserFile /usr/local/etc/freeside/htpasswd
         require valid-user
     </Directory>
</VirtualHost>
---------------------------

All my files in /usr/etc/freeside/ are owned by freeside.freeside As 
well as all the files in the virtual host directory.  Also, apache is in 
the freeside group. Maybe I need to put freeside in the apache group?

Thanks again for your help.
Again does anyone have any suggestions?

Rick
