Centos document_root default user and group

  • 772

After default CentOs 5.5 install - Document_Root directory (/var/www/html) is owned by root. In my httpd.conf file I have:

user apache group apache

mmm. Should I change ownership of /var/www/html to apache:apache?

UPDATE

Never mind. I was trying to figure out why I can't access a directory that i've created inside of the Document_Root. Then I've stoped SELinux and was able to access that directory.

centos apache-2.2

    No, you need not to change the ownership of /var/ww/html from root:root. But it should be in 755 permission.

    What error you are getting while accessing the folder inside /var/www/html
