Since 500 Internal Server Errors aren't ever really caused by Wakaba or Kareha themselves, but are still a big problem for lots of people, I'm setting up this thread to discuss various problems and solutions related to them.

I've always wondered how shared hosting does that. Do they run their webserver software as root or something?

Is there anything like this in nginx?

And is there any reason not to use this?

No. You can spawn FastCGI servers which run with different UIDs to achieve the same security benefits, though.

Yes, it's a bitch and is (in my opinion) unnecessarily strict on how you set things up. mpm_itk does pretty much the same thing, but is easier to set up, lets you use crap like mod_php (so you won't have to dick around with getting PHP to run under FastCGI on Apache) and doesn't whine because you use mode 775 instead of 777 on your CGI scripts.

Err, I meant 755, not 777.

Ugh.. this is confusing the crap out of me.. I did everything as it said and I am getting this error.. "error when writing CGI reply" When posting an image. Message board works fine otherwise.. Also, how do I create new boards?? Sorry for being a newfriend..

Can't really help with the first problem, but to create new boards you just install Wakaba in another directory.
