## Permissions under SELinux
Some Linux distribution, like Fedora or RedHat Enterprise Linux, have SELinux enabled. This acts similar to a firewall application, so that applications can't write or modify files under certain conditions. While installing FreshRSS, step 2 can fail if the httpd process can't write to some data sub-directories. The following command should be executed as root to fix this problem:
+
```sh
semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/usr/share/FreshRSS/data(/.*)?'
restorecon -Rv /usr/share/FreshRSS/data

## Problems with firewalls

To identify the problem, here are the steps to follow:
-- step 1: Try to reach the feed locally to discard a problem with the feed itself. You can use your browser to this purpose.
-- step 2: Try to reach the feed from the host in which FreshRSS is installed. Something like `time curl -v 'https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/commits/master.atom'` should make the deal. If you are running FreshRSS within a Docker container, then you can check connectivity from within the container itself with something similar to `sudo docker exec freshrss php -r "readfile('https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/commits/master.atom');"`. If none of this works, then it might be a problem with your firewall.

Then to fix it, you need to do check your firewall configuration and ensure that you are not blocking connections to IPs and/or ports in which your feeds are located. If using iptables and you are blocking inbound connections to ports 80/443, check that the rules are properly configured and you are not also blocking outbound connections to the very same ports.
