You should check out the Apache docs for 13PermissionDenied
and make sure that you set the correct permissions for your folder.
chmod 755 /home/ec2-user/myapp/
You can also:
cd /home/ec2-user/
ls -la
Which will output every file and the owner:group and permissions for each user group of your folder. Look for anything out of the ordinary.
From the WSGIDaemonProcess docs:
user=name | user=#uid.rst
Defines the UNIX user name or numeric user uid of the user that the daemon processes should be run as. If this option is not supplied the daemon processes will be run as the same user that Apache would run child processes and as defined by the User directive.
Note that this option is ignored if Apache wasn’t started as the root user, in which case no matter what the settings, the daemon processes will be run as the user that Apache was started as.
If you're running your user as apache
it will not be running as ec2-user
and the apache
user must have access to all subdirectories and the containing folder /home/ec2-user/
.
You could move to /var/www/
, chown
to user apache
and run from there so you don't have to move the permissions of the ec2-user
s home directory.
