Ok, this is a really weird one, but I've seen it on two different servers. The first is a RHEL server that I don't maintain, the second is the RHEL 6 Beta server I set up this morning, no customizations or anything. Here's the behavior: 1) #cd /var/www/html 2) #wget somefile.tgz 3) #tar xvf somefile.tgz 4) Open firefox, go to http://localhost/somefile/index.html and get an access denied message. 5) #cd /var/www/html 6) #vi index.php [create a test page] 7) Open firefox, http://localhost/index.php works correctly. 8) #cd /var/www/html 9) #mkdir test 10) #cp index.php test/ 11) Open firefox, go to http://localhost/test/index.php works correctly. 12) #cd /var/www/html 13) #mkdir new 14) #cp -r somefile/* new 15) Open firefox, go to http://localhost/new/index.html and works correctly. It does the same thing if I use a gui. For example, I download somefile.tgz and open it Archive Manager. I drag the folder from Archive Manager onto my desktop, then from there into /var/www/html. Same behavior. It fails doing this as root and doing it as a regular user. The files are all owned by user:apache and all set to rwxrwxr-x or drwxrwxr-x for directories, so in theory the world can read them. Other than outlining the steps to duplicate it, I don't even know a quick way to summarize this problem. Does anyone have any ideas?
