For security reasons, this is not so good as SELinux has informed me. Now all of the files have been copied to /var/www/etc with owner and group "root". The privileges are 754 (rwxr-xr--), however apache does not have access to them. Should the owner be apache? Group? ToddYou will need give the user who is running the httpd daemon (apache by default) the required access to the files. If you have things that need to be written, you will need to give that user (again, apache by default) write access to those files/directories. You control who an httpd instance runs as in the httpd.conf file ... look for User and Group in your httpd.conf file. This will tell you for the default install: egrep '^User|^Group' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf You will need to set user and/or group permissions on your directory as required based on who is running the httpd daemon._______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos # User apache Group apache Since I am a "Sunday user" of Linux in that once I set it up, it may be months before I need to do anything other than backup and run yum update. As a result, my Linux skills are not like someone using Linux daily (wish I did not have to earn my living in the Windows world). So, I wanted to make sure that changing the Owner and Group to "apache" for /var/www/ was correct. Todd -- Ariste Software Petaluma, CA 94952 http://www.aristesoftware.com |
