What are the permission for /proc itself? it needs to be 755

If you have strace, you can strace uptime and see exactly what kind of
error you are getting when uptime tries to open /proc/uptime and
/proc/loadavg.

is there a proc filesystem somewhere in your chroot? i have never
tried chrooting apache+php, but I know that uptime, at least on
linux, reads from proc/uptime and proc/loadavg. If you haven't
already, try mounting proc in wherever your chrooted '/' is.

good luck...
