by the way is there any guide or document to set up apache server with non privileged user
Thanks again
With Solaris 10 it should be possible using pfexec and appropriate privileges, but it's more usual to start it as root and use the "User" and "Group" in the config file for normal runtime use as Neo suggested.

Any user can run Apache ( provided the pid file and logs can be written by the user ), but you need extra privileges to run it on the standard ports. If you set the port number > 1024 any normal user could start it. I have in the past allowed certain users to control the Apache server on certain servers without giving them root access by creating an IPFilter to forward from port 80 to an unprivileged port that apache was listening on. To an external user there is no difference but there is no need to grant any extra permissions to the user running the server.

Jifty::Script::Server(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				Jifty::Script::Server(3pm)

NAME
Jifty::Script::Server - A standalone webserver for your Jifty application SYNOPSIS
jifty server jifty server --port 6666 jifty server --stop DESCRIPTION
Starts and stops Jifty's standalone web server. options --port The port to run the server on. Overrides the port in the config file, if it is set there. The default port is 8888. --user USER The user to become after binding to the port. It is advised that you use this when binding to low ports, instead of running as "root". This option only works if the server is using a Net::Server subclass. --group GROUP The group to become after binding to the port. Like "--user", this option only works if the server is using a Net::Server subclass. --host HOSTNAME The host to bind to. This option only works if the server is using a Net::Server subclass. --stop Stops the server, if it is running. This is accomplished by reading the PID from "var/jifty-server.pid" --restart restart the server, if it is running. This is accomplished by killing the child pid, and let parent pid create a new one --sigready SIGNAL Sets the signal number that should be sent to the server's parent process when the server is ready to accept connections. --quiet Reduces the amount of debug output sent by the server --dbiprof Turns on DBI profiling; see DBI::ProfileDumper. --help Print a brief help message and exits. --man Prints the manual page and exits. DESCRIPTION
When you're getting started with Jifty, this is the server you want. It's lightweight and easy to work with. METHODS
run "run" takes no arguments, but starts up a Jifty server process for you. perl v5.14.2 2010-12-08 Jifty::Script::Server(3pm)
