Great that you managed to solve it.
Remember that 777 permissions are good for testing. In real environment you should be careful about granting permissions to everybody, especially rights to write to some folder or execute a file. Limiting it to the web server (or fastcgi) owner and particular location should be enough.
Also look carefully at stuff that users upload to your server. Don't let them execute anything nasty
