Summary:

SELinux prevented httpd (/usr/sbin/httpd) write access to settings.php.

Detailed Description:

SELinux prevented httpd write access to settings.php. httpd scripts are not
allowed to write to content without explicit labeling of all files. If
settings.php is writable content. it needs to be labeled httpd_sys_content_rw_t
or if all you need is append you can label it httpd_sys_content_ra_t. Please
refer to 'man httpd_selinux' for more information on setting up httpd and
selinux.

Allowing Access:

You can alter the file context by executing chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_rw_t
'settings.php' You must also change the default file context files on the system
in order to preserve them even on a full relabel. "semanage fcontext -a -t
httpd_sys_content_rw_t 'settings.php'"

Fix Command:

chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_rw_t 'settings.php'
