Apache/PHP cannot save to the public_html

Question

Apache and PHP are running as nobody user and group. public_html folder is set to:

drwxrwx---  11 myuser nobody  4096 Feb 11 14:39 public_html/

but when Apache and PHP (via Wordpress) tries to overwrite anything there it can't.

Answer 1

Well, it looks like upgrading Apache from 2.2 to 2.4 on WHM somehow removed suPHP. An answer from that question brought me on that direction.
