Does we really need to allow apache to "write" the moodle web pages ? currently : $ ll -Z /var/www/moodle/ drwxr-xr-x. apache apache system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 data drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 web @moodle packager, Why not use a more standard (FHS) layout /var/www/moodle/web => /usr/share/moodle /var/www/moodle/data => /var/lib/moodle @Dan, we already have some other web app with SElinux context (ex, see glpi), managed in package scriptlet. Do you really plan to add all this directories in default policy ?
