Re: Move httpd root, selinux help

the exact log  of the  avc denial is needed to analyse the problem.but
assuming it as a denial due to the context.either you can do as
dwalsh said or alternatively ,you can change the context of the file
and directory to httpd_sys_content_t and put the file name and
directory name in /etc/selinux/restorecond.conf and restart the
restorecond service.
so that even when you accidentally delete the file you can get the
correct context on recreating it.
