Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to...

想建立一个测试用的虚拟主机，遇到了这个问题：
[root@localhost html]# service httpd start
Starting httpd: httpd: Could not reliably determine the server\'s fully qualified domain name, using localhost.termwikidev for ServerName
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:81
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:81
no listening sockets available, shutting down

Unable to open logs

解决办法：

semanage port -l|grep http
semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp 81

这个两个命令一是查看，一个是添加，添加完再查看一遍，如果有81，则成功。另可能要以root用户运行。

此外，如果要外网访问，还要打开linux的防火墙：

[root@localhost html]# vim /etc/sysconfig/iptables
[root@localhost html]# service iptables restart

重启apache.

starting httpd 13 permission denied make_sock could not bind to address2010年01月19日 星期二 11:33In Fedora Core 5/6 and RHEL 5. We have made it easier to customize certain common parts of SELinux. In previous releases of SELinux if you wanted to change simple things like which port a daemon could listen to, you would need to write policy. Now we have the semanage utility.

SELinux assigns types to all network ports on a system. By default all ports are less then 1024 are labeled reserved_port_t and all ports > 1024 are labeled port_t. If a port is assigned to a particular type
say the http port 80, it has an assigned type of http_port_t. If you want to look at all the assigned ports in SELinux, you can use the semanage tool, semanage port -l.

So if you executed

semanage port -l | grep http
http_cache_port_t tcp 3128, 8080, 8118
http_cache_port_t udp 3130
http_port_t tcp 80, 443, 488, 8008, 8009, 8443
pegasus_http_port_t tcp 5988
pegasus_https_port_t tcp 5989

Here we see http_port_t is assigned to ports 80, 443, 488, 8008, 8009, 8443

The policy is written to allow httpd_t http_port_t:tcp_socket name_bind;

This means the apache command can "bind" to an port that is labeled http_port_t.

So lets say you want to run httpd on port 81.

So you edit /etc/httpd/http.conf

and change this line
Listen 80
to
Listen 81


Now restart the daemon.
service httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
Starting httpd: (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:81
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:81
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
[FAILED]

Now the daemon fails to start because it can not bind to port 81.

This generates an AVC that looks like

----

To fix this you can use semanage to add the port

semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp 81

service httpd start
Starting httpd: [ OK ]
