Symptoms

The problem described in this Knowledgebase article has been completely fixed since Parallels Plesk 11.5 (see the release notes ).

Webserver reconfiguration fails with an error like:

New configuration files for the Apache web server were not created due to the errors in configuration templates: httpd: Syntax error on line 221 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 8 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/zz010_psa_httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 16 of /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/vhosts_bootstrap.conf: Could not open configuration file /var/www/vhosts/domain13gcl.a10-52-59-230.qa.plesk.ru/conf/13382830970.33967600_httpd.include: Permission denied

Cause

Incorrectly set context on the webserver configuration files.

Resolution

1. Connect to the server using SSH .
2. Reinstall psa-selinux package to reset SELinux policies on webserver configuration files

   # yum reinstall psa-selinux

3. Reconfigure webserver configuration files

   # /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all

If by some reason it was not helped, then follow steps below:

1. Install the package which provides the semanage utility:

   # yum install policycoreutils-python

2. Change the context type for webserver configuration files:

   # semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "/var/www/vhosts/[^/]*/conf(/.*)?"

3. Apply your context type changes:

   # restorecon -Rv /var/www/vhosts/

4. Reconfigure webserver configurations:

   # /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all
