In my view if you see a message like:
« WIMS panick! Unable to bring up wimslogd. Permission denied «
in your browser (pointing at http://yourserver/wims/wims.cgi?), there is nothing wrong with apache.
(apache is showing the error-message of wims)
Just install wims as 'user wims'.Execute as root the script « ./bin/setwrapexec »
The panick is most likely caused by wrong permissions.
If you have installed wims on a separate partition or hard drive…make sure your « /etc/fstab » is correct. (eg shell-scripts and other programs may be executed)
KInd regards,
