[postgis-users] pgsql2shp/shp2pgsql and php

[David TECHER]

I think that you must see how is the owner of the
directory of your repertory

see your httpd.conf of apache

and find the line

User nameoftheuser

for example if the nameoftheuser is foo, you will have

User foo

then foo must also be an user of postgresql in order
to use 'pgsql2shp ... -u foo'. he must have right to
use databases of postgresql

so use  the command

   createuser foo

 and say 'y' to 2 questions that createuser ask you
