Hi,

 

I have apache2 http server installed on Fedora 8.

I generally log in as non-root user, so I wanted to change document root in httpd.conf to "/home/saurabh/mysite".

After changing the files, when I try to start http server, I get an error -

Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 280 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

DocumentRoot must be a directory

Also, I get a pop-up error saying

SELinux

AVC denial. Click here to view.

But, when I click, nothing appears.

 

Any Ideas??

I log in as a normal user.

Then I open a terminal & switch to root, and execute command to start apache server.

Also, In the same terminal I am able to do a 'cd' to that directory. Which means, both the normal user & root have access to that directory.
