==Running and Configuring Apache Server==
 
  
<b><big>Introduction</big></b>
 
 
<font face="Georgia">In this page, you are going to set up a Apache server and allow a user create his own personal web page.
 
</font>
 
 
 
===Creating a Public Web Page===
 
# Login as root user
 
# Configure the Apache server to start when the Fedora is booted: <b><code><font color=green >chkconfig httpd on</font></code></b>
 
# Start the Apache server: <b><code><font color=green >service httpd start</font></code></b>
 
# Create index.html in <b><code><font color=brown >/var/www/html/ </font></code></b>directory, write some html code in the file
 
# Open a browser, and enter <code> http://localhost </code>. Your page should display.
 
# Make web page accesses by other hosts: <b><code><font color=green >iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport http -j ACCEPT</font></code></b>
 
 
 
===Serving Personal Home Page===
 
 
# Login as root user
 
# Edit Apache Server configuration file <b><code><font color=brown > /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf </font></code></b>
 
#* Inside IfModule tag, comment <b>“UserDir disable”</b> and uncomment <b>“UserDir public_html”</b>
 
#*:<font color=orange ><code><IfModule mod_userdir.c>
 
#*::  #UserDir disable
 
#*::    UserDir public_html
 
#*:</IfModule></code></font>
 
# Restart the Apache server: <b><code><font color=green > service httpd restart</font></code></b>
 
# Logout root
 
# Create a <b>public_html</b> directory inside your home directory
 
# Change the permission of your home directory and the <b>public_html</b> to read and execute for other, so that the server can assess files in <b>public_html</b> by name. Enter follow command:
 
#* <b><code><font color=green > chmod 705 /home/user/public_html </font></code></b>
 
#* <b><code><font color=green > chmod 705 /home/user </font></code></b>
 
# Create index.html in <b>public_html</b> directory, write some html code in the file.
 
# Change the permission of index.htm to read only for other: <b><code><font color=green >chmod 704 /home/user/public_html/index.html </font></code></b>
 
# By default, selinux doesn't allow Apache Server to read file inside user's home. Change the default setting: <b><code><font color=green >setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs 1 </font></code></b>
 
# Check the context of public_html and index
 
#* By default, selinux has <code><font color=purple >context type httpd_user_content_t</font></code> for <code><font color=purple >/home/[^/]*/((www)|(web)|(public_html))(/.+)?</font></code>
 
#* Confirm the context type is correct: <b><code><font color=green >ls -Z public_html</font></code></b>
 
# Open a browser, and enter <code> http://hostname/~your-user-id/</code>. Your personal page should display.
 
 
 
===Create a web script in user's home===
 
#Login as a root
 
#Edit configuration file <b><code><font color=brown >/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf </font></code></b>again. Add lines
 
#Restart the Apache server: <b><code><font color=green >service httpd restart</font></code></b>
 
#By default, selinux doesn't allow Apache Server to read file inside user's home. Change the default setting:<b><code><font color=green > setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1</font></code></b>
 
#Add context type to make script exexutable. To do that you need to add expressions for cgi file and public_html that more specific that the default expression.
 
#*For public_html: <b><code><font color=green >semanage fcontext -at  httpd_sys_script_exec_t  "/home/[^/]*/public_html"</font></code></b>
 
#*For cgi files: <b><code><font color=green >semanage fcontext -at  httpd_sys_script_exec_t  "/home/[^/]*/public_html/.+\.cgi"</font></code></b>
 
#*For non-cgi files: <b><code><font color=green >semanage fcontext -at  httpd_user_content_t  "/home/[^/]*/public_html/.+"</font></code></b>
 
#Apply the context: restorecon <b><code><font color=green >-vRF public_html</font></code></b>
 
#Confirm the context types are correct: <b><code><font color=green >ls -Z public_html</font></code></b>
 
#Logout root
 
#Create diskfree.cgi and change its permission to executable: <b><code><font color=green >chmod 705 /home/user/public_html/*.cgi</font></code></b>
 
#Write lines in  diskfree.cgi
 
#Open a browser, and enter <code>http://hostname/~your-user-id/diskfree.cgi</code> . The disk usage of your computer should be displayed.
