If so, it will not always set the file context properly. You can tell if you will check to see if SELinux is active (run getenforce and see if it returns "Enforcing") and use the -Z switch to ls to see the file context of the problem files. If the context is not "httpd_sys_content_t" or something similar you need to fix the context. Fixing it is easy, just run restorecon: restorecon -rv /var/www/html This will walk down the directory tree and fix up the file contexts, giving you a message about the files it changes. Of course, if it isn't an SELinux problem, this won't help. -- Jay Leafey - jay.leafey at mindless.com Memphis, TN -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
