SS 2.4.7 on Linux server

Currently I have a perfectly working installation of SS that I'm trying to migrate to a live server. But when I upload an image through the CMS on the new server it's not resampling the images.

What I've done:

1. I have tar.gz'd the dev server files and untarred them on the new server.

2. Imported the db dump to the new db

3. Changed my connection vars in _config.php

4. Set group ownership recursively on the assets folder to 'apache' (chown -R root:apache assets)

Now, when I upload a photo through the CMS it will upload the picture, and I can see the picture on the live page, but it does not resample the pic and the thumbnail will not show up in the CMS.

Can someone shove me in the right direction of permissions? Assuming I'm having a permissions problem.

Attached is a pic showing the permissions of the pic I tried to upload (origamibox1.jpg) and the permissions of the _resampled directory. The photo does not get resampled and does not appear in the _resampled directlty.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
