Oops messed up /var groups

Too tired to be doing admin last night, I typoed a command and did an incorrect chgrp -R on my /var directory. I thought I had it all fixed, but find I can't log in to Zoneminder today. It just loops back to the login screen. D'oh!!
What did I miss under /var? Who should own what?

Thanks,

Steve

Replying to myself again... :)

/var/lib/php/session has to be writable by apache.
It was staring me straight in the face once I bothered to look at /var/log/httpd/error_log (Duh)

That all good, It's how the rest of us have learned as well at one time :wink:
Glad you got it sorted.
Cheers,
