Pulling out what little hair I have here, but stumbled onto a possible 
problem.

I have a server running C6 apache that is set up with personal 
directories and no problem showing the files.

You can see it at: medon.htt-consult.com/~rgm/pogo

So I have a C7 apache server I am building.  Files I create on the new 
server are listing fine.  Files I have copied (with cp -avr ...) get 
permission error e.g.:

[Wed Dec 23 12:32:49.359323 2015] [negotiation:error] [pid 3208] 
(13)Permission denied: [client 192.168.160.20:38708] AH00686: cannot 
read directory for multi: /home/rgm/public_html/biby/

File permissions are the same.  So in frustation I try using stat and it 
shows a different picture:

$ stat test/testit
   File: ‘test/testit’

Notice the difference with Context.  Wiaht is this 
httpd_user_content_t?  Why on files I create on this system and not 
those I cp from a USB drive?  And is this the problem or something else?


thanks
