If you copied files from some other directory into pics, then they

I've attached the full output of the troubleshooter just in case I
managed not to include everything needed.




Run restorecon as suggested by the troubleshooter.

Yep, that did it.  Sometimes I wonder if the devs of SELinux are sane.

They're sane. You have to understand just what they're trying to
accomplish and there's a lot of stuff to try to protect from. Try
looking at a grsec'd system if you want some "least privilege"
complexity.

It would be nice if there were a  cp option to adopt the context of the
target. Currently, -Z requires that you set the context.  I suppose it's
a good idea to keep you from shooting yourself in the foot by coping a
file that shouldn't be visible on a web site.

You can use "--preserve=context" to maintain the SELinux context of the
source file. You can't adopt the context of the target since you're
overwriting it. Makes sense if you think about it.
