Notice that info.php is in the documents directory and I can access it fine.-rw-r--r--. 1 apache root 20 Oct 9 11:32 info.phpI tried to create the page as my regular user, but was unable to save in that directory, so I ended up creating it as root. How am I going to be able to work on Moodle development if I can’t modify files in the www/html folder as a regular user? This is a development server with one user, myself. Should I make all the files match the permissions on info.php and do all my work as root? Thanks for any help,
Timothy.

You posted for every directory except /var . What are its permissions?I have no idea if selinux could get in the way or if setenforce 0 really gets rid of it. Incorrect access detected, this server may be accessed only through "http://*my ip*/moodle" address, sorry. Please notify server administrator. Does Moodle modify the default 403 error page? That is probably what this is. If I use http://*my ip*/moodle or http://*my ip*:80/moodle I get this error: Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to *my ip*Is apache set to listen to an IP besides 127.0.0.1?Run httpd -S for the list of active vhosts. - Y On Wed, Oct 9, 2013 at 4:19 AM, Timothy Curchod <timof...@hotmail.com> wrote: Hi, I've tried a few times to setup moodle on LAMP but failed each time with the following errors: If I use localhost/moodle, I get this error: Incorrect access detected, this server may be accessed only through "http://*my ip*/moodle" address, sorry.

I've looked at a lot of questions relating to permission problems that people have had and it all seems to show that I have things set up correctly, or have tried the things that should work. /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf contains...User apacheGroup apache...<Directory /> AllowOverride none Require all denied</Directory>...<Directory "/var/www"> AllowOverride None # Allow open access: Require all granted </Directory>...<Directory "/var/www/html"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks #AllowOverride None all Require all granted </Directory> My directory permissions are: drwxrwxr-x. 4 apache apache 4096 Oct 9 08:23 www drwxrwxr-x. 2 apache apache 4096 Jul 31 15:50 cgi-bin drwxrwxr-x. 3 apache apache 4096 Oct 9 14:07 html -rw-r--r--. 1 apache root 20 Oct 9 11:32 info.phpdrwxr-xr-x. 44 apache apache 4096 Oct 9 14:18 moodle -rw-r-----. 1 apache apache 690 Oct 9 14:18 config.php-rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache timothy 35147 Oct 4 11:43 COPYING.txtdrwxr-xr-x. 7 apache timothy 4096 Oct 9 14:06 course-rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache timothy 2594 Oct 4 11:43 draftfile.php drwxr-xr-x. 17 apache timothy 4096 Oct 9 14:06 enroldrwxr-xr-x. 2 apache timothy 4096 Oct 9 14:06 error-rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache timothy 3923 Oct 4 11:43 file.phpdrwxr-xr-x. 3 apache timothy 4096 Oct 9 14:06 files drwxr-xr-x. 14 apache timothy 4096 Oct 9 14:06 filter-rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache timothy 953 Oct 4 15:14 githash.phpdrwxr-xr-x. 8 apache timothy 4096 Oct 9 14:06 gradedrwxr-xr-x. 3 apache timothy 4096 Oct 9 14:06 group -rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache timothy 1423 Oct 4 11:43 help_ajax.php-rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache timothy 1761 Oct 4 11:43 help.php-rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache timothy 13203 Oct 4 11:43 index.php * tried setenforce 0.
