I happened to notice some old CGI scripts I use failing this morning on a server 4 website.
Poking about I found that some file permissions have changed from 766 to 744.
This has happened on numerous server 4 sites.
After changing the file permission on the failing script everything is running again.
Freeola, thanks for posting this maintenance work. Without seeing that I would have been scratching my head for a lot longer!
Can you say what the maintenance was and if you will be doing it to all the other web servers in the future?

EDIT:
I thought this was worth a forum post rather than a support ticket as I'm all sorted and others may find it useful if they are affected :¬)

Thanks for the feedback. We'll try and get it sorted for next time as we will be performing this maintenance across all the free hosting servers soon. It may that the newer perl configs are slightly different, we did check pretty thoroughly but it would be impossible to check everything is running correctly on every single site.
