I attempted to change my localhost directory... it didn't work. I then put everything back the way it was. I re-inserted the original httpd.conf and put all the localhost files back.
But... now it's broken. Everything is the same as it was, but I can't access my file through a browser.
What am I doing wrong?
Disabling SELinux is not the right way to solve this, when you change the default location of Apache hosting file, you need to relabel them (as Apache binary file is not allowed to serve/access any content except /var/www/html, not even users home folder public_html by default)
for the past year troubleshooting SELinux problems became much more each, and you can even find the needed instruction to fix the problem in the event log.
you can read a quick guide on Fedora/CentOS/Redhat sites - e.g. http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/SELinux
I solved this by editing the SELinux config file.
I changed:
SELINUX=enforcing
To:
SELINUX=disabled
And changed:
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
to:
SELINUXTYPE=minimum
I then restarted my computer and things worked. Weirdly though, I changed them back and restarted again and now everything works still.
I don't know if by changing it and changing it back I "reset" something or what.
