Unix & Linux Asked on December 24, 2021
Does anyone know which sebool it is to allow httpd write access to /home/user/html?
When I disable SELinux echo 0 > /selinux/enforce I can write, so my problem is definitely related to SELinux. I just don’t know which one is the right one without opening a big hole and Google isn’t being much help.
#[/home]ls -Z
drwxr-x---. user apache unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 user

You will find very good documentation at RedHat on selinux a 180 page .pdf manual you can download, but the best way to deal with selinux issues is to open a terminal and type as use the automated tools.
Try:
Then repeat the problem causing behavior. You will get a nice display of the problem and the ways you may want to consider fixing it (in my case it was a folder that apache could not write to).
aureport starts a reporting program, which will offer you several alternatives when something goes wrong. They are clearly explained by people who speak English. I spent hours on an selinux problem, then got to this little gem in the redhat documentation, and I had the problem fixed in 30 seconds. One of the choices was spot on.

semanage permissive -a httpd_t
did the trick for me
Answered by centosuser on December 24, 2021
Although it is better to label the files and folders with the httpd_sys_rw_content_t where needed, for completeness I figured I'd mention that you can also change the seboolean httpd_unified to 1 to make SELinux ignore this particular context requirement, which is still much better than disabling SELinux as many on the internet would advise.
From the man page:
httpd can be configured to not differentiate file controls based on context, i.e. all files labeled as httpd context can be read/write/exe- cute. Setting this boolean to false allows you to setup the security policy such that one httpd service can not interfere with another.
setsebool -P httpd_unified 0
Answered by Dan Bowling on December 24, 2021
None of them, at least not by itself. You must either give the directory structure a context of httpd_sys_rw_content_t, or give them a context of public_content_rw_t and enable allow_httpd_anon_write and/or allow_httpd_sys_script_anon_write as follows:
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /path
See the httpd_selinux(8) man page for details.
