Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd from using potentially mislabeled files
/var/cache.

Detailed Description:

SELinux has denied the httpd access to potentially mislabeled files /var/cache.
This means that SELinux will not allow httpd to use these files. If httpd should
be allowed this access to these files you should change the file context to one
of the following types, var_lock_t, httpd_var_lib_t, httpd_var_run_t, tmp_t,
squirrelmail_spool_t, httpd_log_t, httpd_rw_content, tmpfs_t, httpd_cache_t,
httpd_tmpfs_t, var_lib_t, var_run_t, httpdcontent, httpd_tmp_t,
httpd_squirrelmail_t, var_log_t, httpd_apcupsd_cgi_content_ra_t,
httpd_apcupsd_cgi_content_rw_t, httpd_sys_content_t,
httpd_prewikka_content_ra_t, httpd_prewikka_content_rw_t,
httpd_awstats_content_ra_t, httpd_awstats_content_rw_t,
httpd_w3c_validator_content_ra_t, httpd_w3c_validator_content_rw_t,
httpd_user_content_ra_t, httpd_user_content_rw_t, httpdcontent,
httpd_munin_content_ra_t, httpd_munin_content_rw_t, root_t,
httpd_bugzilla_content_ra_t, httpd_bugzilla_content_rw_t,
httpd_nagios_content_ra_t, httpd_nagios_content_rw_t, httpd_sys_content_ra_t,
httpd_sys_content_rw_t, httpd_sys_content_rw_t, httpd_cvs_content_ra_t,
httpd_cvs_content_rw_t, httpd_git_content_ra_t, httpd_git_content_rw_t,
httpd_squid_content_ra_t, httpd_squid_content_rw_t. Many third party apps
install html files in directories that SELinux policy cannot predict. These
directories have to be labeled with a file context which httpd can access.

Allowing Access:

If you want to change the file context of /var/cache so that the httpd daemon
can access it, you need to execute it using semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE
'/var/cache'.
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: var_lock_t, httpd_var_lib_t,
httpd_var_run_t, tmp_t, squirrelmail_spool_t, httpd_log_t, httpd_rw_content,
tmpfs_t, httpd_cache_t, httpd_tmpfs_t, var_lib_t, var_run_t, httpdcontent,
httpd_tmp_t, httpd_squirrelmail_t, var_log_t, httpd_apcupsd_cgi_content_ra_t,
httpd_apcupsd_cgi_content_rw_t, httpd_sys_content_t,
httpd_prewikka_content_ra_t, httpd_prewikka_content_rw_t,
httpd_awstats_content_ra_t, httpd_awstats_content_rw_t,
httpd_w3c_validator_content_ra_t, httpd_w3c_validator_content_rw_t,
httpd_user_content_ra_t, httpd_user_content_rw_t, httpdcontent,
httpd_munin_content_ra_t, httpd_munin_content_rw_t, root_t,
httpd_bugzilla_content_ra_t, httpd_bugzilla_content_rw_t,
httpd_nagios_content_ra_t, httpd_nagios_content_rw_t, httpd_sys_content_ra_t,
httpd_sys_content_rw_t, httpd_sys_content_rw_t, httpd_cvs_content_ra_t,
httpd_cvs_content_rw_t, httpd_git_content_ra_t, httpd_git_content_rw_t,
httpd_squid_content_ra_t, httpd_squid_content_rw_t. You can look at the
httpd_selinux man page for additional information.
