Yes, you are correct. I tried "apache" and "backuppc" groups and nothing changed. (It is suppose to be backuppc:apache by most accounts I am reading.)

Not familiar with running backuppc on centos. Is there a backuppc group that your user has to be a member of?

I have been using BackupPC for years on an Ubuntu/Debian OS. I am switching to CentOS 7 and cannot figure out why I am getting the following: FORBIDDEN You don't have permission to access /BackupPC on this server. . . . . when I "http://[ipaddress]/BackupPC" I have disabled selinux and firewalld to see if they are interfering with my access. They do not appear to be. (So, I re-enabled them.) I can access "http://[ipaddress]" and get the default CentOS webpage. To install BackupPC I enabled the EPEL repository. It appears to have included all the dependencies. I have checked and re-checked file permissions. Any ideas why I cannot access? Suggestions?

1. Did you edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf to have User backuppc
and restart httpd ?

2. Did you run sudo htpasswd -c /etc/BackupPC/apache.users <user>

3. Does backuppc own all the files in /var/lib/BackupPC ?
