Ok, check to see what user Apache is running as. Issue the command:
ps -ef | grep http
You should see something like this:
wwwrun 17153 1097 0 Sep14 ? 00:00:06 /usr/sbin/httpd2-prefork -f /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
The first column (wwwrun in my case) is the user that the web server is running under. Then enter:
groups wwwrun
But substitute your first column for wwwrun, you will get something like this:
wwwrun : www
www is the group name that the web server is running under. That should be the response to the question 'What group is your web server running under?' (or how ever it's phrased).

I just gave it the defaults. "Stupid User trick" right? I'm not that familiar with Linux or Apache and just took all the defaults.
I did see that error which is what prompted this help email.
