[ckan-dev] [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/ckan/ (no solution works)

Fri Nov 9 00:43:30 UTC 2018

I am just running it on apache on centos otherwise known as httpd.

I have this exact install on 2 other VMs and it has no issue like this. I
did the same install.

wsgi runs the python.

here is the output of var  and var/lib

drwxr-xr-x.  22 root root 4096 Nov  8 14:59 var

drwxr-xr-x. 38 root root 4096 Nov  8 14:43 lib
