SoftException in Application.cpp:404 Mismatch between target UID and UID of file

[sajugovind]

Today one of my customers called me that his website was down, without him changing anything. I opened up the website, and got an 500 internal error. I took a log at the logs and this is what showed up:

Code: [Select]

[Fri Nov 30 16:54:32 2012] [error] [client 77.169.180.xx] SoftException in Application.cpp:404: Mismatch between target UID (99) and UID (518) of file "/home/michiel/domains/myclientdomain.com/public_html/index.php
[Fri Nov 30 16:54:32 2012] [error] [client 77.169.180.xx] Premature end of script headers: index.php
This is because of permission issue of document root of the domain.

Run :

Code: [Select]

chown -R <user>.<user>  /home/<user>/public_html
Replace <user> with the cPanel username.

Thank you,
