How to Upload My Web Server after installation Apache, MySQL and PHP?

Hi, Besides all the things mentioned by @KFSys, SELinux may be an another possible cause of your issue, if it is installed and enabled, of course. To check if it is enabled, run:

sestatus

Installed and enabled SELinux gives the output like:

Output
SELinux status:                 enabled
SELinuxfs mount:                /sys/fs/selinux
SELinux root directory:         /etc/selinux
Loaded policy name:             targeted
Current mode:                   enforcing
Mode from config file:          enforcing
Policy MLS status:              enabled
Policy deny_unknown status:     allowed
Max kernel policy version:      31

I highlighted the results indicating that SELinux is enabled and enforces its policies. So, if you get the status as above, you can turn on SELinux permissive mode for troubleshooting purposes:

sudo setenforce 0

If you can get your website in the browser now, that may indicate that your website directories/files are labeled incorrectly, due to SELinux scheme. So, you need to check it out, and fix it. You mentioned that your website root directory is /var/www/html/. List its content with SELinux labels:

sudo ls -laZ /var/www/html/

You will get something similar to:

Output
drwxr-xr-x. qq   qq   system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 .
drwxr-xr-x. root   root   system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 ..
-rw-rw-r--. qq   qq   unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 index.html

I highlighted the correct label for website files and directories. If the label of your index file is different, you can add the correct one running:

sudo semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "/var/www/html(/.*)?"

Actually, that command adds label to /var/www/html/ directory and all its content. Then, you need to set up the added label as a default one.

sudo restorecon -R -v /var/www/html

Now you can turn on SELinux enforcing mode

sudo setenforce 1

Let me know if it works, pls.

More info on SELinux you can find here.

Hi @EiMonHtun,

So, you can check Apache’s DocumentRoot by viewing the following file :

/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

In it, you should see a DocumentRoot. Usually, as you mentioned it’s /var/www/html. You can check just to be on the safe side.

Having said that, what I think you’ve done is created a new index.html with different ownership, most probably root:root`` however Apache has specific group and user that needs to be. Usually it's www-data:www-data``` however you can check that as well. Open the file

/etc/apache2/envvars

Inside search for

export APACHE_RUN_USER
export APACHE_RUN_GROUP

It will show you what group and user you should create the files with. Once you know what it should be, you can use the chown command on the files you’ve added.
