Solved CentOS 7 VM will not boot
-
Reinstalled everything from scratch and thought it was all good. But I am having a weird problem.
When I turn on any kind of permalink option other than the default it fails.
example: http://jaredbusch.com/?p=20 works.
If I change it to postname with date like I prefer, it gives me: The requested URL /2014/08/27/installing-owncloud-on-centos-7/ was not found on this server.But if you go to the landing page, it shows all three posts on the site.

but this site does not have that problem

Something is weird in this install.
Right after I reinstalled CentOS 7 and the various Wordpress sites, I was able to install plugins and run updates and such all from the built in processes.
Today I go to run install a new plugin on one of the domains and I get the FTP credentials screen. I know this means that Wordpress has no access to the folder/files it needs.
The directory was chown'd to apache:apache (and I did it again just now). What else can I look into? The only other ting I have seen is maybe my php process is not running as apache? But I am not sure how to check that.

I created test.php as follows
<?php echo 'Current script owner: ' . get_current_user(); ?> <br /> <?php phpinfo(); ?>Then i chown apache:apache test.php to match the rest of the files in the folder.

Everything looks right to me. -
Anyone have any other ideas on what maybe wrong with this wordpress install?
-
When you chowned, did you do it recursively?
chown -R apache:apache /webdir
-
How do you make your code blocks in ML? Are you manually indenting all of those lines?

When I know I want to paste code, I paste it in notepad++ first then select all hit tab then copy paste here.

Yes, and it was all working fine right after install because I added plugins and a theme.

Ah ha, thanks. I thought that you must have some tool for that.

Run it again in case something changed.

I did prior to posting about it. I did it again just now and also rebooted.
I simply do not know where else to check for a permissions issue.

@scottalanmiller @ajstringham or anyone else using wordpress
I just dumped the mysql databse to a SQL file, dropped the database, and renamed the daerma folder
I then downloaded the latest WP zip and extracted it. renamed the folder daerma, copied the wp-config file, set my credentials, and then chown'd the daerma directory..
launched daerma.com did the inital config with no problem and tried to update to WP 4. FTP login prompt immediately.
All 5 WP sites on this server display this behavior so I am thinking it HAS to be something else related to the OS. I did run yum updates a week or so ago. and again 2 days ago while troubleshooting this.
CentOS7 x64

Here is the repo list. epel was just added a couple days ago when I tried to install pertino.
Prior to that, this was a clean CentOS7 minimal install no extra repos.

SELINUX was back to enforced. because I neglected to set /etc/selinux/config to permissive.
I had originally set it to permissive with setenforce permissive but that of course is lost on reboot.
Thanks @scottalanmiller fo mentioning selinux
-
SELinux is often a tricky thing when permissions seem to be wide open but are still failing.

Oh that sucks. What did it do on import?
Found the import problem was php-xml was missing. The importer never gave a notice. Only found it after trying a few other importer plugins. One of them popped a warning the XMLReader was missing.
-
Awesome, so it is all working now?
-
Well http://daerma.com is working perfectly, but http://JaredBusch.com is not updating the permalinks correctly. I will just nuke that one and redo it later and see if the problem goes away. I only have 3 posts on it.
