Error when loading php pages

Can anyone tell me why I am getting this error when attempting to load my pages.

CGIWrap Error: Execution of this script not permitted
Script is group writable.


We recently have switched web hosting companies. All these pages worked before and now no longer do with the new company. Is it possible that they do not support php? Cannot seem to get a straight answer from their techs there.

This is not rocket science on these pages, only using an "include" so that I can change 1 file an update all pages at once!

Thanks.

It is complaining that they are group writable - don't know why exactly but to get round it, use either shell acess via ssh or your ftp prog to change the file permissions so they are not group writable. chmod 700 ought to do it.

Yep, that was the problem!! Setting it to 700 worked, and actually 644 took care of the problem too!

Thanks!

Any idea why that happened. Am I gonna have to always do this from now on?

It sounds like CGIwrap is some software your host has installed. They seem to want to block group writable scripts so that only the file owner can control what the code does. It's a security measure. You will need to make all your scripts non-group writable in the future I think.
