apache userdir and permissions to write public_html (suPHP)?

Question

I have set ubuntu 10.10 server with LAMP. I use USERDIR mod for apache, but when I install some CMS systems for user like Concrete5, I need to set chmod 777 to some directorys to write data with CMS. Is it possible to add some permissions for apache, so that I don't need to use chmod command.

I have read something about suPHP. Is it good for this?

I would stay away from software/how to's that tells you to use chmod 777. — Rinzwind, Sep 19 '11 at 13:31
I used this one and it worked http://bibekshrestha.com.np/blogs/post/2009/08/18/setting-apache-userdir-and-suphp-ubuntu-810-server . Now I have only issues with reading generated file, for example .httaccess — user13123, Sep 20 '11 at 06:37

Just change all the files ownership under the concrete5 directory to www-data or whatever user you are running:

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data concrete5
