Thanks Jo,
I carried on reading up on this and found some interesting suggestions
however they all require a fair amount of work (which is fair enough i
suppose ;-) ) with no real guarantee that things aren't gonna break. Your
suggestion seems pretty simple indeed. I actually managed to fix it by
opting for the 'logical' solution: I moved the site in question to the
suexec docroot and updated the vhost file to reflect that! :-)
It all works fine now.
I will keep your posts for future reference. Thanks again.
Regards,
Raph
