[mapserver-users] Trouble with OGR output and writing to temppath

Hi,

I have troubles with getting the ORG output to work. 

I have configured CVS ouput like this
OUTPUTFORMAT
  NAME "CSV"
  DRIVER "OGR/CSV"
  MIMETYPE "text/csv"
  FORMATOPTION "LCO:GEOMETRY=AS_WKT"
  FORMATOPTION "STORAGE=filesystem"
  FORMATOPTION "FORM=simple"
  FORMATOPTION "FILENAME=result.csv"
END

I have set TEMPPATH in the MAP/WEB
WEB
       TEMPPATH "/usr/temp/"

/usr/temp directory has 0777 permissions.  Mapserver can write error.log file into that directory without troubles. 
WFS works normally with outputformats GML2 and GML3. However, WFS requests with CSV outputformat fails and I am getting error messages like this:

 msOGRWriteFromQuery(): General error message. Failed to open result file '/usr/temp/4edb45fd_707c_0/result.csv'.

Error.log file is also listing all the features and all the attributes so the query itself is successful. 
I am trying this with Ubuntu server and Mapserver version is 6.0.1.  It is also odd that I am sure that I did manage to get valid zipped shapefiles out from this same server a couple of days ago but now all that I am getting back is empty zipfile. Error.log does not report about any error in this case.

Any suggestions what to try next or what to do for finding the ultimate reason for the error?
