SELinux Configuration
=====================

When you have SELinux enabled on your Linux distribution, you may run into 
permissions problems after a new ownCloud installation, and see ``permission 
denied`` errors in your ownCloud logs. 

The following settings should work for most SELinux systems that use the 
default distro profiles. Run these commands as root, and remember to adjust the filepaths 
in these examples for your installation::

 semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/var/www/html/owncloud/data'
 restorecon '/var/www/html/owncloud/data'
 semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/var/www/html/owncloud/config'
 restorecon '/var/www/html/owncloud/config'
 semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/var/www/html/owncloud/apps'
 restorecon '/var/www/html/owncloud/apps'
 
If you uninstall ownCloud you need to remove the ownCloud directory labels. To do 
this execute the following commands as root after uninstalling ownCloud::

 semanage fcontext -d -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/var/www/html/owncloud/data'
 restorecon '/var/www/html/owncloud/data'
 semanage fcontext -d -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/var/www/html/owncloud/config'
 restorecon '/var/www/html/owncloud/config'
 semanage fcontext -d -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/var/www/html/owncloud/apps'
 restorecon '/var/www/html/owncloud/apps'

If you have customized SELinux policies and these examples do not work, you must give the 
HTTP server write access to these directories::

 /var/www/html/owncloud/data
 /var/www/html/owncloud/config
 /var/www/html/owncloud/apps
