"no input file specified" with apache/php after recompile

Question

I have CPanel and I recompiled php to 5.3.13 and im getting "no input file specified" on sites like vB and MyBB running in fcgi and suEXEC (same mode as before).

on build I have checked: Mod SuPHP Mod FCGID MPM Prefork

as far as i know when i did a recompile no options were changed. i had been running 5.3.8

any ideas as to what may be causing this? other sites work and running just fine.

this is not a great answer, but it did help me to double check and yep.. also permissions problem :D in my case one php-fpm process with permissions of one user failing to read files in another user's directory
