Apache, Drupal, mod_fcgid, WHM

For no special reason Drupal sites on our server (CentOS 5 with cPanel/WHM) started to make problems with file upload.

Quick playing with different file sizes revealed that files that are less then 100kb are OK, but bigger files are creating problem. Of course php post_max_size and upload_max_filesize are set to 20mb so that was not causing problems. Strange...
