Install LAMP phpMyAdmin and MariaDB into CentOS7

stacksofplates

you can also do a chcon -R --reference=/var/www/html <directory you need to change> but remember if you just use chcon it can be reversed with restorecon to the bad types. I usually use this as a quick test to make sure it works. Then I'll use semanage to permanently change the context.

Just turn of SELinux and make sure it all works before you change contexts.

setenforce 0

then if it all works, change contexts and turn it back on and test.

I'm with Jared, turning SELinux off during testing and installation is fine. Just make sure it is there before you start using the box.

And that is why I always say to use setenforce 0, because it will not survive a reboot in case you forget.

I got out of the habit of doing this because if the installer changes something in a diff directory that you didn't expect it can be a pain to troubleshoot. I've had that happen a couple times. But in this scenario it's all http files so I agree.

Same here.

So I've used

sentenforce 0

But now I'm getting stopped here

scottalanmiller

You put in the directory name, rather than the log file name.

DustinB3403

Ah. maybe that is it (it auto fills).

One second, testing

DustinB3403

So I touched a messages.log file into /var/log/syslog and gave it 666 access.

Still no love.

DustinB3403

Same with "messages"

No love.

What OS is that? I thought you wanted the logs from XenServer. That's an Ubuntu log.

/var/log/messages

DustinB3403

This is CentOS 7 that is running LogAnalyzer and Syslog.

I'm trying to stand up a centralized location to push the logs to from XenServer.

So you are looking for the XenServer or the CentOS logs? In both cases, they are in /var/log/messages, not in /var/log/syslog as that's an Ubuntu file.
