Thanks for all the help!
Re: [Resolved] Issue changing the apache user/group
One quick addendum to this:
The FreePBX instructions do not mention this directory and it's easy to overlook, but necessary for authentication to work with ZM.
Whenever I enabled authentication (by enabling OPT_USE_AUTH in the options) I could not log in.
I enabled debugging and I was getting these PHP warnings which were being suppressed without debugging on:
The ownership on /var/lib/php/session was "root:apache" and it needs to be "root:asterisk"
"chown -R root:asterisk /var/lib/php/session" fixed this.
