File manager and error log issues!

In file manager trying to add a small piece of code and keep getting this. Any ideas. I've never recived this before in the past 14 months!

Also getting this in my forum index.php
Seems I was getting that before. I'm thinking this is related to that phpsuexec. If so it is getting close to being gone if it is still screwing with my ability to work with my forums.

OK weirdness factor!!

Decided I would try writing the code in an re-uploading the file. Noticed from the ftp client the file is 777 but file manager says 755 and it won't let me upload the changed file get same error and it won't let me change the permissions either. Any ideas? Double checked other files folder they all seem fine just this one weirdo!

More and more this is convincing me phpsuexec is screwing things up!

Your ownership is most likely wrong. If you use your root password to upload an original file, root will be the owner and will not work with username account. With the root password you can change the owner to the username. When logged in as username, you cannot change ownership to username from root, nor can you change root's permissions. Permissions will not necessarily be the same for both logins, so use the permissions when logged in as username.

I'm not sure. From the ftp it looks like I do and in file manager it acts like nobody dose.

I thought that blasted phpsuexec took everything away from nobody??

A good FPT client, like FileZilla, will show owner and group as either owner/group or #####/#####. Don't even bother with cPanel's File Manager. You can also use SSH and the command:which owner and group will appear in the third and fourth columns.

With Set User enabled, the ownership of the file is the most important.
Before you can attempt to diagnose a phpSUexec problem the File Ownership has to be known first!

Since you have root access (SSH) you can change the ownership using the root password with the linux command: Owner and Group are both the username of the account throughout the public_html directory. When you convert php from Apache to CGI, you have to verify the file ownerships yourself. Once SU is in place subsequent uploads will have the proper owner/group, unless, you inadvertently upload using the root password and forget to change the ownership.
