Found the problem in the log file - the sudo command wasn't being found.

Thanks!

you should take a look at apache error log to see what sudo says.
i''ve never used sudo but when i make a shell script SUID 0, bash tells me
it is too dangerous to run a script in SUID 0. and that's probably
true because a lot can be modified in a script thru the environment.
