Session error - Urgent

Hi. 
I´ve got a problem running apache with php on a Red Hat 9.
It gives me this error: 
Warning: session_start(): open(/tmp/php/sess_db2af2b2bf4106fe2457762aba403be
a, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13)in /usr/local/htdocs/common/conexao
_firebird.php on line 2

But the thing is that I run apache with the user 'apache' and the same group
.
This user has permission 777 on /tmp/php (he is the owner).
But every time a session is create the error appears.
The session file is created at the rigth location with the owner and group '
apache' but the permission of the file is none (---).
Perhaps it could be something with umask, I don´t know, because if I create 
a file manualy it gets the permissions ok. The error is only with apache + p
hp.
I´d be very glad if you could help me.
Best regards.

Since your problem is not about php.net, this is not the right email
address to ask it. Please contact php-general@lists.php.net with general
support questions.
