Bugzilla install problems

To continue some recent discussion about Bugzilla, I've got the database and everything set up okay and have gotten to the second round of running checksetup.pl after editing it with my custom values (database user/pass etc).

It's blowing up with some permission errors. Please note that I have set the web server group in the localconfig file to be my group, not 'nobody'/'apache' or blank.

I'm not sure what the can't stat error is, because data/template does in fact exist and is chmod 775.

Tried this guy's suggestions, no dice. (second article in the thread). I've also tried setting the web server group as my group.

I am facing the same issue. I can view the Bugzilla home page, have setup the mysql but cannot succesfully run the checksetup script the second time.

I tried setting the group to "", but that didn't help. Any advice from anybody who was able to succesfully setup Bugzilla on dreamhost?

I receive the error:
