Description Tero Ojala 2004-09-28 17:15:23 UTC 
Description of problem:

Apache's UserDir does not work if SELinux set to Enforcing.


How reproducible:

Configure Apache UserDir. Switch SELinux Enforcing/Permissive. Works
when SELinux is set to Permissive. Does not work with Enforcing.
 

Actual results:

Apache does not serve from www.mysite.com/~user and "(13)permission
denied. access to /~user denied." appears in /var/log/httpd/error_log


Expected results:

Apache serves from ~user/public_html

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2004-09-30 18:49:10 UTC 
Try
chcon -R -t httpd_user_content_t ~USERNAME/public_html
Comment 2 Ben Levenson 2004-10-06 22:49:27 UTC 
This works for me.
* Verify settings in httpd.conf
* Verify file contexts (comment #1)
* Verify directory perms for ~user and ~user/public_html
