+## Permissions under SELinux
+
+Some Linux distribution like Fedora or RedHat Enterprise Linux have SELinux system enabled. This acts like a firewall application, so all applications cannot write/modify files under certain conditions. While installing FreshRSS, step 2 can fail if the httpd process cannot write to the following directories :
+
+ - FreshRSS/data
+ - FreshRSS/data/cache
+ - FreshRSS/data/favicons
+ - FreshRSS/data/users
+
+The following commands should be executed as root :
+
+```sh
+semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/usr/share/FreshRSS/data
+semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/usr/share/FreshRSS/data/cache'
+semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/usr/share/FreshRSS/data/users'
