It is the delete (unlink) portion that the page cannot execute.  So, I
assume this is a setting in my server conf?  Apache is running as nobody,
but nobody is not a valid user on my linux server.  Is that the problem?  If
so, is the normal prcatice to have a user like 'web' and give all rights to
that user?  Alternatively I could do a copy and truncate to accomplish the
same task, but this seems too laborious.  Thoughts?
