The default setup requires that apache is setup to run as: User backuppc Group backuppc There are other ways to do this if you have to have httpd run as the apache user for other things, but the easiest thing to do (if you can), is to set the User and Group to backuppc in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and restart httpd. I have not run backuppc on CentOS-7 (I ran it on CentOS-6), I have not run it in 3 years, and my backuppc machine(s) had no other things on them that needed to run httpd for any other reason .. so others might have better advise if your machine is not single purpose.
