CentOS installation problem with writable include

[opencreativity]

Hi all,

I have a blocking situation.

Both via svn and zip, I install on a fresh CentOS 7 in

/var/www/html/

latest RS stable release 8.0.x

when start setup, the error is

Write access to config directory:

(FAIL: '/include' not writable. Only required during setup.)

Write access to storage directory:

(WARNING: /var/www/html/pages/../filestore not writable

Override location in 'Advanced Settings'.)

I change permission recursive in both directories

no changes

I change owner:group apache:apache

no changes

I change first permission, than owner on parent directory

/var/www/html/

than

/var/www

but, no changes, the error persist

I indagate the /var/www/html/pages/setup.php

finding some issue on path, but I don't find nothing

The same research on /var/www/html/include/config.default.php

I try to setup $base_url with the effective http address

nothing happen

Always the same error

Why?

My dir structure

[root@centos ~]# cd /var/www/html/

[root@centos html]# ls -la

Hello,

I have a similar problem with a Server 2008 RS2 WinOS.

I have:
- defined the proper permissions(*) in IIS for the storage (another drive), and
- created a virtualdirectory in the website definition, and

(*) set write permission for IUSR and IIS_IUSR.

but the setup check seems is not getting the directoy path to check the permissions. To be honest this is a guess, I am not sure the reason.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

I was fighting similar issues on CentOS in the past. It seemed to be an issue with the SELinux policy for me that caused the error you indicate. I found some hints for my problem in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29343809/php-is-writable-function-always-returns-false-for-a-writable-directory.

Thak you Maarten!

I read the thread and the instruction on SELinux and the solution for me was

chcon -R -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /my/webapp/dir

Now it's all ok

I also spent many time on this, I moved the documentroot to another directory, finally I just disablk selinux on the machine.

setenforce 0

turn off

/etc/selinux/config

change selinux to disabled. permanent turn oFF
