Apache2 and FPCGI 2.0

[John Sica]

  First thing I verified.  Also, when apache2 runs as the default user 
"daemon", the htm file gets populated, unlike when run as "filepro", the 
file get created but is zero length and still owned by filepro.  The 
only problem with running apache2 as daemon, is the browser always 
returns the message that the file can't be read due to the permissions, 
which is correct.

Mark suggests the filepro code should be looked at, rather than the 
apache2 configuration, but changing it back to using apache1 fixes the 
problem.  That's why I asked if anyone had done this before, or am I the 
first.  Unless and environment variable can be added or the apache2 
config changed, I don't think we're going to change several hundred 
lines code to work around this problem.
