SeLinux permission question

Hi,

in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Code:
#DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
DocumentRoot "/home/phpmy/html"

when I restarted httpd

Code:
[root@localhost ~]# /etc/init.d/httpd restart
Stopping httpd:                                            [FAILED]
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 293 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
DocumentRoot must be a directory
                                                           [FAILED]

from apache2 - Cant start apache, says html folder not directory - Server Fault

Code:
 chcon -R -h -t httpd_sys_content_t /var/www/html/

httpd can be run with DocumentRoot set to var/www/html.

so I did the following

Code:
chcon -R -h -t httpd_sys_content_t

results are as follow:

for /var/www/html
Code:
[root@localhost ~]# ls -laZd /var/www/html/
drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 /var/www/html/
[root@localhost ~]# ls -laZ /var/www/html/
drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 .
drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 ..
-rw-r--r--. root root unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 phpinfo.php

for /home/phpmy/html
Code:
[root@localhost ~]# ls -laZd /home/phpmy/html/
drwxrwxr-x. phpmy phpmy system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 /home/phpmy/html/

[root@localhost ~]# ls -laZ /home/phpmy/html/
drwxrwxr-x. phpmy phpmy system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 .
drwx------. phpmy phpmy unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 ..
-rw-r--r--. phpmy phpmy system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 phpinfo.php

I still don't understand why it don't work.

thanks a lot!

NAME
apache - Apache hypertext transfer protocol server overview DESCRIPTION
apache consists of a main server daemon, loadable server modules, some additional support utilities, configuration files, and documenta- tion. FILES
The apache HTTPD server is integrated with Solaris. The following files specify the installation locations for apache: /etc/apache Contains server configuration files. A newly-installed server must be manually configured before use. Typically this involves copying httpd.conf-example to the httpd.conf file and making local configuration adjustments. /usr/apache/bin Contains the httpd executable as well as other utility programs. /usr/apache/htdocs Contains the Apache manual in HTML format. This documentation is accessible by way of a link on the server test page that gets installed upon fresh installation. /usr/apache/include Contains the Apache header files, which are needed for building various optional server extensions with apxs(8) /usr/apache/jserv Contains documention for the mod_jserv java servlet module. Documention can be read with a web browser using the url: file:/usr/apache/jserv/docs/index.html /usr/apache/libexec Contains loadable modules (DSOs) supplied with the server. Any modules which are added using apxs(8)are also copied into this directory. /usr/apache/man Contains man pages for the server, utility programs, and mod_perl. Add this directory to your MANPATH to read the Apache man pages. See NOTES. /usr/apache/perl5 Contains the modules and library files used by the mod_perl extension to Apache. /var/apache/cgi-bin Default location for the CGI scripts. This can be changed by altering the httpd.conf file and restarting the server. /var/apache/htdocs Default document root. This can be changed by altering the httpd.conf file and restarting the server. /var/apache/icons Icons used by the server. This normally shouldn't need to be changed. /var/apache/logs Contains server log files. The formats, names, and locations of the files in this directory can be altered by various configuration directives in the httpd.conf file. /var/apache/proxy Directory used to cache pages if the caching feature of mod_proxy is enabled in the httpd.conf file. The location of the cache can also be changed by changing the proxy configuration in the httpd.conf file. ATTRIBUTES

attributes(5) http://www.apache.org NOTES
In addition to the documentation and man pages included with Solaris, more information is available at http://www.apache.org The Apache man pages are provided with the programming modules. To view the manual pages for the Apache modules with the man command, add /usr/apache/man to the MANPATH environment variable. See man(1) for more information. Running catman(1M) on the Apache manual pages is not supported. SunOS 5.11 8 Aug 2000 apache(1M)
