Hi,
I'm currently fiddling with Nginx on CentOS 7. Eventually I want to
use it instead of Apache on some servers.
Apache works more or less out of the box with SELinux. My websites are
all stored under /var/www, and ls -Z shows me that all files created
under /var/www are correctly labeled httpd_sys_content_t.
On my sandbox server I don't have Apache (httpd) installed, only Nginx
(the nginx package from EPEL).
I manually created the /var/www directory and put a handful of static
websites in there to play around with. Curiously enough, I got a
SELinux alert.
I took a peek in /var/www, and here's what the SELinux context looks
like:
unconfined_u:object_r:var_t:s0
Now I'm a bit puzzled. Is the correct httpd_sys_content_t context only
applied if the httpd package is installed? How else can I explain this
strange behavior?
Any suggestions?
Have used Nginx on Fedora with SELinux. Perhaps first try putting your
sites in the default document root, /usr/share/nginx/html
