Fedora Users — apache (httpd) on f8 vs. fc6 running LXR

I have a LXR setup on fc6 that works fine. When I move it to f8 (whichseems to have the same versions of httpd, perl, mysql etc) I can onlyget it to work if I change the user/group in httpd.conf fromapache:apache to myusername:myusername. The files accessed by httpd,perl etc are world readable and executable but owned by root, as theywere in fc6. These are in /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/....

I have tried changing all the files to owner/group apache:apache butthat does not help. I have disabled selinux and that makes nodifference, but saw no errors before disabling. I have made httpd.confuser/group nobody:nobody and that does not work. Only when I use my ownUID/GID in httpd.conf does LXR work.

I have set-up LXR several times before with other fedora/rh versionswith no problem this difficult. Why would the apache account not work inf8 but it did work with the same files in fc6? Or should I just runapache as myself and be happy. This is only really used from localhostfor the most part, not on the internet.
