I encountered the following error:
Nothing was listed under next steps? How very helpful.....!
So I did the research and resolved the issue. Here's what I did to resolve that error, with the minimum disruption to my SELINUX security model:
Provisos:
No "777" permissisons
No "-R" blanket ownership changes
First, establish who owns the apache web server (what user/group), because that is the user that is being blocked somehow:
#egrep -i '^user|^group' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
User apache
Group apache
Next, investigate the original state of the website from a permissions perspective:
Regular File Permissions
# ls -l
total 4
drwxr-xr-x. 4 holisticpethelp.com holisticpethelp.com 67 Dec 26 2018 libraries
drwxr-xr-x. 43 holisticpethelp.com holisticpethelp.com 4096 Oct 16 13:31 modules
drwxr-xr-x. 3 holisticpethelp.com holisticpethelp.com 23 Mar 6 2018 themes
SELINUX File Permissions:
# ls -lZ
# ls -lZ
drwxr-xr-x. holisticpethelp.com holisticpethelp.com unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 libraries
drwxr-xr-x. holisticpethelp.com holisticpethelp.com unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 modules
drwxr-xr-x. holisticpethelp.com holisticpethelp.com unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 themes
- apache is the user we need to enable
- modules is the area of the file system we need to alter
Resolution:
1) Make the modules directory the property of apache
2) Make the modules directory write-able by apache
Commands:
The following commands enable the user apache to install new modules in the modules directory of Drupal 7 via its web interface:
#chown apache:apache modules
#chcon -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t modules
