Some people may have seen the error "rTorrent user can't access 'id' program. Some functionality will be unavailable".
The first thing one may think is that the id program has wrong permissions.
Or /tmp dir isn't writable by rtorrent user.
Or rtorrent and we-server doesn't use the same temp directory.

The solution on my system, which runs systemd, was to open /lib/systemd/system/httpd.service
and set PrivateTmp=False

then
systemctl --system daemon-reload
then
systemctl restart httpd.service

Just wanted to write it down here, since I couldn't find it in this forum
