Hi,

I want to create a wiki page from a python Program. Following the 
documentation I managed to do that as the user running the webserver. 
However I want to run this program as a different user. 
Whenever I do this I get a permissions error:

MoinMoin.error.ConfigurationError: 
data_dir "/share/cc_wiki/moin_cc/share/moin/data" does not exist, or has incorrect ownership or
permissions.

Make sure the directory and the subdirectory "pages" are owned by the web
server and are readable, writable and executable by the web server user
and group.

It is recommended to use absolute paths and not relative paths. Check
also the spelling of the directory name.
====

/share/cc_wiki/moin_cc/share/moin/data exists and is writable by the apache user but not by the user running the script.

Version is 1.9.4

regards, Andreas
