[SOLVED] permissions

kb2tfa · 06-07-2015, 11:46 PM

Running centos 7 with apache. I'm running WordPress, and I want to install a forum. I've tried phpbb and mybb. Neither will install I says certain files are not writable. When Is -al is run, the permission are correct.. The web install says no. I don't get it. Can this be a server issue?

Whats teh apache log showing when you do the web install piece? Also, can you list who your installing as, what ls looks like, etc? Might be able to help. Have not installed wordpress ina few years.

Have you followed phpBB installation docs? It says you have to set certain directories permissions correctly before and after installation.

I uploaded three photos. One saying the file permissions are not set to write, and two showing via grep that they are set. I am attempting to install mybb. I mention phpbb because I could not install that either. same issues. I would set permissions ls -al and see that they are set and then the web install would say nope. I also mention wordress because it is running on the same server. wordpress installed with no issues. I also have the tail error log to post. It has to be something silly, I just can't see it. Also the /var/html/ is apache:apache recursive

Code:

 tail /var/log/httpd/error_log

did you fallow the install instructions and change the permissions on those folders BEFORE installing

go back and recheck

Step #2
Step #3
and so on

I'm lost. I followed the instructions. The screenshot shows web install errors and screenshot of terminals show the actual permissions and they are correct. This works on my local centos but not on aws. I can only read the directions an CHG perms so many times. I've even deleted and started over. Since everyones answer is I can't read I'll consider this closed the for the replies folks. I'll figure it.

Hello,

The fist thing that sticks out is this :

Code:

 [:error] [pid 19616] client script '/var/www/html/mydomain.com/forum/ucp.php' not found or unable to stat

Well, did you check if it exist?

Hello,

Also, this is going to be something either in your vhost set-up or htaccess file.

client denied by server configuration: /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/scripts
