preupgrade not Upgrading F14 to F15
I used preupgrade to Upgrade F14 to F15.Finally preupgrade issued a message to reboot for the upgrade to take place.I have Ubuntu and Fedora both on my machine.By mistake during the reboot the machine went into Ubuntu since it was the default selection on the OS section menu of the Boot loader.I by pressing the restart Button restarted the machine and Got Fedora Booted Up But the Upgrade from Fedora 14 to Fedora 15 has not taken place.When preupgrade is started it is agian starting from the begining. Why is this? What can be done during the next phase of upgrade to start from the point it was left off? -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

If you're getting a 403 then something is denying the web server access to those paths. If you have set the directory permissions correctly (iirc you need other execute on the home directory (search permission) and other read/execute on the public_html directory and its subdirectories) the you may need to set up SELinux contexts for the directory if you have it enabled on your system. I normally do this by using a reference from /var/www/html since it is installed with the correct context for httpd content: chcon -R --reference=/var/www/html public_html/ Heh, thought I might be out of date here.. I think that the correct context for home directory web content is now httpd_user_content_t (although I think httpd_sys_content_t still works - an SELinux expert can probably explain exactly why that's wrong or a bad idea but it certainly means there's no separation between user and system content so the policy can't distinguish them ;). More info in this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=509943 Regards, Bryn. Dear Bryn I have been addressing this isuue for about two days and has also posted on FedoraForum.org. The Thread is http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=260382.This thread was not initially started by me.I have posted by the UserName Vefoda.On that thread acording to the advice given by jpollard(http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showpost.php?p=1461100postcount=9) I have carried out the following 1. enable the UserDir entry: UserDir enable 2. uncommment the next UserDIR line (and/or modify it for your choice): UserDir public_html 3.Set the SELinux boolean control httpd_enable_homedirs to on to allow apache to access the users public_html (or whatever you called it). 3a. restart apache 4. Let the user create their public_html directory in their home directory, then use chcon -t httpd_user_content_t public_html to set the security label. 5. Let the user set permission bits (chmod +rx public_html) on the directory. This will grant READ ONLY access to files (and php scripts). The URL for access is //host/~username/. Before Doing the above I was not able to even start httpd.But now it starts and the problem now is I am getting a Forbidden page?From what I gather I think is that httpd is able to access /home/varuna/public_html/ But the Web Browser is not able to access the Home Directory contents, public_html contents to be exact Your Advice Please!

Well, that rather depends on what *you* mean by logging on.

How Am I able to change the ownership of the /var/www/html through the terminal when logged in as root? While still the root user, you can reconfigure the webserver to use a different directory, one that is owned by yourself (such as a sub-directory placed inside /var/www/html. While I am the root user How is it possible to configure the webserver to use a different directory through the terminal? 2 Am I safe from outside intrusion when running the Web Server bound to port 80 No. Whether you're safe, or not, depends on other factors.

How to set SELinux to allow apache-httpd only to access a particular user's content?
I tried to set the ServerRoot to a Directory in my home Dirctory.But
when tried to start httpd after setting ServerRoot and saving the
httpd.conf file SELinux repoted the following
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd from search access on the
directory /home/Home Directory.
* Plugin catchall_boolean (47.5 confidence) suggests
***
If you want to allow httpd to read user content
Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the
'httpd_read_user_content' boolean.
Do
setsebool -P httpd_read_user_content 1
I want to know How to set setsebool to allow httpd to access only the
content of a particular user?
The manual pages of setsebool(8) and getsebool(8) can not be viewed,
when the command man getsebool(8) the output is -bash: syntax error
near unexpected token `('
The SELinux FAQ at
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/SELinux_FAQ/index.html#id3128699
is as follows
Q:
How do I enable/disable SELinux protection on specific daemons
under the targeted policy?
A:
Use system-config-selinux, also known as the SELinux
Administration graphical tool, to control the Boolean values of
specific daemons. For example, if you need to disable SELinux for
Apache to run correctly in your environment, you can disable the value
in system-config-selinux. This change disables the transition to the
policy defined in apache.te, allowing httpd to remain under regular
Linux DAC security.
The getsebool and setsebool commands can also be used, including on
systems that do not have the system-config-selinux tool. Please refer
to the manual pages for these commands: getsebool(8) and setsebool(8)
for further details on their operation.

Joshua I started the service But I had to log on as root.The problem I have now is How to Do web development.The Test page is displayed when accessed through localhost.In the left part of the Test page the below is displayed If you are the website administrator: You may now add content to the directory /var/www/html/. Note that until you do so, people visiting your website will see this page, and not your content. To prevent this page from ever being used, follow the instructions in the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/welcome.conf. You are free to use the images below on Apache and Fedora powered HTTP servers. Thanks for using Apache and Fedora! My problems are 1 How to Do web Development, I am not able to(not allowed) save any .html or any other file in the directory /var/www/html Do I have to logged in as root to Do web Development? 2 Am I safe from outside intrusion when running the Web Server bound to port 80 On 13 April 2011 10:00, Joshua Andrews woodguy552...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Varuna Seneviratna varunasenevira...@gmail.com To: Richard Shaw hobbes1...@gmail.com Cc: Community support for Fedora users users@lists.fedoraproject.org Sent: Tue, April 12, 2011 8:08:53 PM Subject: How to install Apache web server in Fedora 14?
