i'm using arch linux, so how ubuntu configures apache and php is
different. for me i just used the git for mythweb, and followed this
wiki
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MythWeb   and it has always
worked. i would still take a look at the arch wiki and see if you can
relate it back to ubuntu. also have a look and double check the
open_basedir folders in the php.ini and make sure everything you are
pointing to is in the list. i hope something in there helps you get it
work
