conf.php permissions are blocking installation

[MedLabs]

Bug

Setup is not allowed by conf.php permissions
I get this message everytime I try to install Dolibarr.
I tried :
chmod -R 755 and even 777 for the whole dolibarr folder
chown apache.apache and nginx.nginx and my own user:group
and the check step is frozen in the same error message
I cleaned the cache and retried again, but Dolibarr install script can't write conf.php file
Tried with 15.0 15.0.3 and 16.0 same thing

Environment Version

15.0.3, 16.0

Environment OS

fedora linux

Environment Web server

ngin

Environment PHP

8.1.9

Environment Database

mysql

Environment URL(s)

No response

Expected and actual behavior

Expected, I get a start install button instead of the permission error message

Steps to reproduce the behavior

git clone https://github.com/dolibarr/dolibarr -b 15.0
touch dolibarr/htdocs/conf/conf.php
sudo chmod -R 755 dolibarr
sudo chown -R apache.apache dolibarr
BONUS: sudo chmod 777 dolibarr/htdocs/conf/conf.php

Hello,

I have just tried, and I can't reproduce the issue.
Most probably something in your environment, prevent Dolibarr to access to this file.

Hello,
are you sure with your 'chown -R apache.apache' ???
Because you wrote in your Environment you are using nginx?

Usually one you should take 'www-data.www-data' by chown.

Same issue in my Fedora 40,

and yes: even 777 for the whole dolibarr folder still says Setup not allowed by conf.php permissions

Just find out the solution.

The problem was occurred because of SELinux was enabled. Disable your SElinux and try again.
