I have a number of vhosts configured with SuexecUserGroup to run the scripts with limited privileges and the dept. web-site on one of them. The problem is the webmaster can't read online context help which comes with the cms the site is using. Most help files (>2K) have *.php.html extension. *.php and *.html scripts both work as I suspect they should, but when it comes to *.php.html suexec starts complaining (most regular files are 0660 and the webmaster is a member of the group):

directory is writable by others file is writable by others file has no execute permission

and finally after fixing all the above

/var/log/httpd/suexec.log: uid: (10003/web6_www) gid: (10006/10006) cmd: *.php.html

/var/www/web6/log/error.log: Premature end of script headers: *.php.html

Anybody has a clue how to fix this either in vhost config or any other way around?

Thanks
