Hi I am trying to install magento2 on a vps centos
I followed the instructions about file permission in magento documentation
http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/install-gde/prereq/file-system-perms.html
I got the same erorr while installing :
/var/www/html/magento2/app/etc" Not writable, change the permissions.
Do I need to restart apache after I change some permissions.
Thanks for help.
If you are using the setup wizard, it will ask you for permission to write to the app/etc/env.php
I would advise you to use the bin/magento cli tool to setup the app:
php bin/magento setup:install
But it is fine to temporary allowing the web server to write to your env.php, after the UI wizard finished you can change it back to the correct file permission.
For this you need to clear cache.
php bin/magento cache:flush
or you can switch to the developer mode
php bin/magento deploy:mode:set developer
Use below commands to set permissions and then restart apache:
sudo usermod -g wwwrun <yourusername>
cd /var/www/html/magento2 && sudo find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type f -exec chmod g+w {} \; && sudo find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type d -exec chmod g+ws {} \; && sudo chown -R apache:apache . && sudo chmod u+x bin/magento
You need run this code:
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /var/www/html/magento2/
chmod -R a+w /var/www/html/magento2/
Note: Magento2 is folder where you was install magento

I am trying to install magento2 on a CentOS server. I am continuously getting permissions issue, the magento diretory is owned by apache and I set permissions to 777 (i know it is bad but just to test) but I still get permissions denied on file write. the path to magento dir is /var/www/html. I set permissions to /var/www/ and all sub-folders to 777 and file owner to apache still same.
also
egrep -i '^user|^group' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (returns)
User apache
Group apache
any suggestions or ideas, please?
Kind Regards
Sajid
Try following steps
sudo /usr/sbin/groupadd wwwrun
sudo usermod -g wwwrun test
cd /var/www/html/magento2 && sudo find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type f -exec chmod g+w {} \; && sudo find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type d -exec chmod g+ws {} \; && sudo chown -R apache:apache . && sudo chmod u+x bin/magento
where test is the current logged-in user and then restart the http server.
I'm developing a website on a totally offline environment. also, I use gitlab runner for CI and the host is CentOS 7.
the problem is that gitlab runner uses gitlab-runner user on centos for deploying laravel application and apache uses apache user for running laravel.
I got Permission denied error on apache til I changed ownership of files. after that I get this error on apache log:
Uncaught UnexpectedValueException: The stream or file "storage/logs/laravel.log" could not be opened: failed to open stream: Permission denied
it seems that some vendor libraries like monolog want to write error or debug logs onto storage/logs/laravel.log but it gets permission denied. :(

ln -s $PWD /var/www/html/public
chown apache.apache -R /var/www/html/public
chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/public
chmod -R 775 $STG
Am I using gitlab runner correct? how can I fix the permission denied error?
SELinux
I found the problem and it was selinux, like always it was selinux and I ignored it at the begining
What's the problem:
you can see selinux context on files with ls -lZ command, by default all files on www are httpd_sys_content_t, the problem is that selinux just allow apache to read these files. you should change storage and bootstrap/cache context so it can be writable.
there are 4 apache context type:
httpd_sys_content_t: read-only directories and files
httpd_sys_rw_content_t: readable and writable directories and files used by Apache
httpd_log_t: used by Apache for log files and directories
httpd_cache_t: used by Apache for cache files and directories
What to do:
first of all install policycoreutils-python for better commands
yum install -y policycoreutils-python
after installing policycoreutils-python the semanage command is available, so you can change file context like this:
semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t "/var/www/html/laravel/storage(/.*)?"
semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t "/var/www/html/laravel/bootstrap/cache(/.*)?"
don't forget to commit the changes by this command:
restorecon -Rv /var/www/html/laravel/storage
restorecon -Rv /var/www/html/laravel/bootstrap/cache
the problem is solved :)

I'm trying to use Apache to access a file on my Documents folder.
I tried the following:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /home/$USER/public_html
sudo adduser $USER www-data
sudo chmod -R 775 /home/$USER/public_html
As suggested by this post:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/26848/permissions-issue-how-can-apache-access-files-in-my-home-directory
Although this works, now I cannot edit or the files directly as the user (without using sudo), despite being a member of the www-data group. The only solution that seemed to work is using chmod -R 777 (which I rather not do).
Turns out all I had to do is restart the OS and it was sorted!
Am trying to set up a web site in an apache2 www folder on ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
Installed the LAMP as per the manual: sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
Then have done:
$ usermod -g www-data myuser
$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www
$ sudo chmod -R go-rwx /var/www
$ sudo chmod -R g+rw /var/www
$ sudo chmod -R o+r /var/www
So, was going to copy files into www..
But when I (as myuser) try to
$ cd /var/www
I get :
-bash: cd: /var/www: Permission denied
Not sure what to do now...myuser is in the www-data group...
But, one thing that might not be right is that my user is only in sudo and www-data... should it be in users as well?
Thanks
You need to add executable permissions to a folder in order to be able to cd into it.
So, you should have done:
$ sudo chmod -R g+rwx /var/www
Hello I am trying to install Prestashop on my LAMP server via SSH but when run the installation process. I got these error.
The Prestashop files are located in /var/www/html What should I do?
Thanks Morris Mukiri,
I tried all the chmod, chown, chgrp , but the prestashop error message still there .
Your suggestion of "allow apache do writes" worked !
setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi on
setsebool -P httpd_unified on
setsebool -P httpd_builtin_scripting on
These few lines did the magic.
Find the Apache user and change the owner of the folders recursively.
E.g., if the Apache user is apache then:
chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/config /var/www/html/cache...
Change the permissions for the document root folder
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/
You might want to add yourself to the same group as apache using
useradd -G {group-name} username
Try adding a rule in Selinux to allow apache do writes
sudo setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi on
sudo setsebool -P httpd_unified on
sudo setsebool -P httpd_builtin_scripting on
