First, see if SELinux is installed and enabled. Type the sestatus
command. If enabled, you will see output similar to this:SELinux status: enabled
Code Block |
---|
SELinuxfs mount: /selinux
Current mode: enforcing
Mode from config file: enforcing
Policy version: 24
Policy from config file: targeted |
To very quickly check whether SELinux is causing the connection error, you can temporarily switch its mode from "enforcing" to "permissive" (do this as root):
Code Block |
---|
setenforce Permissive |
Now test the Islandora module's connection to Fedora again. If that fixes the problem, you can then make a more permanent adjustment to SELinux to allow the connection to the Fedora server.
You could completely disable SELinux, by changing its configuration in /etc/selinux/config
but it's not necessary (and most often not recommended!). The specific SELinux policy that is blocking access is likely httpd_can_network_connect
. First, change the mode back to "Enforcing", then switch on the policy http_can_network_connect
. Again, as root:
Code Block |
---|
setenforce Enforcing
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect on |
Test the Islandora module's connection to Fedora once more. If it works, you have adjusted the SELinux configuration to permit the needed connection without disabling it entirely.
