No.  There is no mistake.

$ sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/suexec

Are you running in a chroot?


Ha!
I  understand setuid and UID/Gid root/bin for suexec,
but shouldn't the executables be made www/www with authorized users members of www group?

Default suexec -V
shows no access for UID/GID < 1000, so www would not work either.

Also, suexec -V shows public_html enabled, just need to edit the httpd.cong to allow it also.
Again a problem as / and .. are disallowed, so, no Perl.

The manual page on the local Apache server have been written by linguists, not eager to learn
computer users.

Redaing the thread, I understand I am not the only unfortunate. Sadly said.
