Safe Mode Error

I am getting the following error:

Warning: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid/gid is 503/503 is not allowed to access / owned by uid/gid 0/0 in /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/

I know about the php.ini file, but I am not sure how to modify it, I have read the online manuals and within the php.ini file, there is useful manaul information, but I tried the following and it still did not work.

This is what my php.ini file looks like now.

_________start of copy and paste of php.ini_________

; Whether to enable the ability to force arguments to be passed by reference
; at function call time. This method is deprecated and is likely to be
; unsupported in future versions of PHP/Zend. The encouraged method of
; specifying which arguments should be passed by reference is in the function

; you use this feature, and the argument will be passed by value instead of by

allow_call_time_pass_reference = On

safe_mode = Off

; By default, Safe Mode does a UID compare check when

; then turn on safe_mode_gid.
safe_mode_gid = Off

; When safe_mode is on, UID/GID checks are bypassed when
; including files from this directory and its subdirectories.
; (directory must also be in include_path or full path must
; be used when including)
safe_mode_include_dir =

_________End of Copy and Paste of php.ini file_____________

I have tried to turn "On" safe_mode and this did not work.

I have tried to turn "On" safe_mode_gid and this did not work.


All help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Did you restart your web server after making the changes to php.ini?

Yes I did reboot several times as I tried to modify settings with a process of elimination approach. (Yes I created a bkup of the php.ini file), but I still get the safe mode error. Any ideas?

Here is the error I get with safe_mode = off in my php.ini which is located at /etc/php.ini :

Warning: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 503 is not allowed to access / owned by uid 0 in /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/
