Below is my configuation of httpd

cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/horizon.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
    WSGIScriptAlias / /opt/stack/horizon/openstack_dashboard/wsgi/django.wsgi
    WSGIDaemonProcess horizon user=stack group=stack processes=3 threads=10 home=/opt/stack/horizon

    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/horizon_error.log
    LogLevel warn
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/horizon_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Is there is anything wrong with my configuation ?
Thanks.

I think LockFailed is related to a SELinux issue. You can try doing "setenforce 0" and see if that solves it. Unfortunately, I don't know which SELinux boolean in particular needs to be turned on if you want to keep SELinux enabled (please post an update if you figure it out!).

I tried using setenforce 0 but i still does't work. It really confused me . I chang the ownership of /opt/stack/horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/ to nobody:nobody , it does't make sense at all.

Hi, i just solve it by rewriting some code of local_settings.py file. The previous LOCAL_PATH = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) , and then i change it to LOCAL_PATH = '/tmp' .
Besides i change the ownership of folders of horizon to stack:stack . Now all works fine.

Hi, it can fix this bug on the fedora 18.if you change it to LOCAL_PATH = '/tmp',it will report the error "unable to apply CompilerFilter" . I fix it by add ” os.system('setenforce 0') “ in local_settings.py. pls update it.

Is apache able to write to /opt/stack/horizon/openstack_dashboard?

You can verify, this isn't related to selinux be setting temporarily selinux to permissive:
setenforce permissive

You probably want to change 'LOCAL_PATH' from your openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.py.example (resp. local_setting.py) to something like '/tmp'.
