Whilst trying to generate a hardcopy of a problem set I encountered the following error. I thought it may be due to one of the questions that I authored so I made a copy of the set and took all but one question out to no avail. Any ideas?,Regards,Zak

SOLVED: It turned out that some of the files were owned by root and changing the ownership to apache sorted the problem
