Hi all,

Platform:- Redhat-7.2, Plesk psa-2.5.5 .

I am trying to install a foundation catalog with Suexec option enabled using the
makecat command in VEND-ROOT its giving me the following error

"Since you selected the SUEXEC/CGIwrap option and are root, we aren't sure
  which user and group you intended to own the link program. We have selected
  the catalog user's UID/GID (501/501), but this may not match your
  server definition. If you get a server error, change the ownership to its
  proper value and ensure that the SUID bit is turned off on the link
  program (/var/www/cgi-bin/test6)."

But when I try to access that catalog its giving a 500 Internal server error . I tried
changing the permissions to the cgi-bin interchange scripts but all in vain. Is there
a way to install a catalog with suexec enabled in apache ?

When I disabled the suexec option the catalog is working fine without any error.
I searched in the mailing lists but I can't found one solution to this problem. I have
gone thru the below links in Interchange mailing lists.
