Subject: gitweb trouble on fedora
To: git@vger.kernel.org

I'm new to about everything, but I've hit my head on the wall for a couple of hours, went through the gitweb README and INSTALL, online tutorial, everything.

I am having trouble getting gitweb running on a fedora box with apache.

The apache error is [Fri Feb 26 13:21:25 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] [Fri Feb 26 13:21:25 2010] gitweb.cgi: Can't opendir(/var/cache/git): Permission denied [Fri Feb 26 13:21:25 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] [Fri Feb 26 13:21:25 2010] gitweb.cgi:  at /var/www/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi line 2432

Can anyone guess at what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks, Brent
