NM I answered my own question.  I forgot to kill/turnoff SElinux.  So all my
permission issues and other things of that sort were probably stemmed from
that.  I usually have it off anyway but forgot to turn it off after the
fresh install.

Subject: [Yum] Permission problems after update

 

Hello folks.  I'm getting a variety of access forbidden and permission
denied error messages after I ran yum -y update.

I did a full upgrade of all packages available then ran yum clean all

After which I have had nothing but problems with permissions rights and
installing packages after the update that point right to permission issues

I remember that I read in a forum that there is a command or a string of
commands that will reset all permissions globally back to the owners.  I
believe by GID and UID.  But unfortunately I didn't save the link nor
document the fix because I can't find that site again.  Anyone have any idea
how I can fix these annoying and continuing permission issues?

 

I didn't have any permission issues before the yum update only after.  And
each package I have installed after has had nothing but problems as well all
concerning permissions and rights.
