Premise: I have sufficient knowledge on how to install and deploy web application on Ubuntu based on LAMP stack and tomcat. Now I'm trying to use RedHat7 and I have some issue.
I have a web application under /var/www/html/ directory on RHEL7 server. I'm able to reach index page in which there is a login form. This login calls a php page that performs a db call. In this case I have an error in my /var/log/httpd/app1_error.log file:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 8 attempt to write a readonly database in /var/www/html/[omiss]loginPortal.php:82\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/html/[omiss]/loginPortal.php(82): PDO->exec('DELETE FROM use...')\n#1 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/html/[omiss]/loginPortal.php on line 82, referer:
seems that php page doesn't have sufficient permission on database. Database is a sqllite3 db. I Know that in REHL7 i don't have www-data user an group but instead I use apache user and group, so my web directory has apache group and I give 777 permission (I know it is not secure, I'm just tryng to figure out the problem). Despite 777 permission I still have the same problem. Anyone has hints?
If it helps this is my output for ls -lZ command
drwxrwxrwx. apache apache unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 myApp
so I think httpd_sys_content_t is the correct SELinux context
I finally got this solution that worked for me: basically
setenforce Permissive
Reference: Apache permission on stackoverflow
thanks everybody
