[SOLVED] recursive write permission during installation on Fedora 18-2X

in fact the problem is located at 2 places.

1. on some Linux web server, owner of web site (files/folders) should be apache. so as a group and user >> chown -R apache:apache

2. on some linux server like Fedora SELinux Alert Browser also play a role and to allow apache to perform some actions read/write, change permissions etc... you need to allow them.

so to check what is needed to do on "httpd" you can use:

getsebool -a | grep httpd

or directly:

setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi on
setsebool -P httpd_unified on
setsebool -P httpd_builtin_scripting on

now you can give a 644 to all files and 705 to folders. It should work perfectly.

Hope it will help you
