This is of critical importance for any other guides that ever deal with RHEL 8 and up because you need to use the AppStream system to maintain any remotely secure and supportable setup.

No one was completely happy with the old model of a specific version branch being forever tied to the RHEL version, but the trade-off that is now a reality is that almost every version branch that was supported at the beginning of the RHEL 8 cycle will be obsoleted before the end of the RHEL 8 cycle. Upgrading between major branches within the same official RHEL repos is now quick and easy.

Suggestion: some of these commands were unfamiliar to me as they may be to others. So you might consider using the double-dash like this:

/usr/bin/chcon --recursive --verbose --type=httpd_sys_rw_content_t /var/www/html/wordpress

I see where the “restorecon” and the “setsebool” don’t have double-dash switches.

Some other site was using `ls -lZ` instead of using `ls -l –context` — I wonder if you should show `ls –context /var/www/html/wordpress; before and after you do the `chcon` command? it might be useful to those like me who have never even seen these commands before.

Thanks again for sharing.

$ sudo restorecon -Rv /var/www/wordpress

the path should be:

$ sudo restorecon -Rv /var/www/html/wordpress

will be

$ sudo chcon -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /var/www/html/wordpress -R
