Hi Alan Hess,
I am very nice to get your help. I am customizing moodle 2.8 on windows os and Xampp. I have deploy in a server with windows 2008 server. The moodle run as well as.
today, I have to deploy the moodle that was customized on oracle linux. I have met the proplem. some steps I did.
2. zip moodle source code folder and moodledata folder.
3. upload all file to linux server by ftp with root
4. create database and user
5. import database from the mysql file.
6. unzip moodle to /var/www/html/ and moodledata to /var/moodledata
7. chmod -R 777 moodledata and chown -R apache:apache moodledata
8. chown -R apache:apapche moodle
7. Edit config.php file
That is all I did that
Thanks
Thank you,
I have installed the other server it seems works, but after login the home is blank page and detail of course. other page is very good such as course list, ....
I have attacked 2files.

First, Oracle Linux appears to be "like" RedHat Enterprise with some "suttle" differences - that's assumed reading over their website/information. They offer training classes ($3500.00 per course) in admin of their system. They do NOT offer any community (at least open to public) support forum. You can, however, purchase a support contract - I didn't bother looking up that cost. This to say ... when you have issues with Moodle related to the OS, not much support may be acquired here in these forums *UNLESS* the responder happens to run Oracle Linux. What answers you do get are 'educated guesses' ... such as below ...
Before one places moodledata and does something 'non-standard' for the OS they run, suggest finding the config file for your apache server. IF Oracle Linux is like RHEL, that is located in /etc/httpd/conf/ and the file is httpd.conf.
*IF* I am correct this command will show where your apache instance has defined 'DocumentRoot':
fgrep DocumentRoot /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
It should show this:
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
this means your moodle folder or moodle code goes into /var/www/html/
Your moodledata folder then *should* reside in /var/www/
Reason ... apache user (under which apache runs) already has access permissions to that directory AND it satisfies Moodle requirement NOT to be directly accessible via any browser via URL.
Still have to change ownerships (like you have done) and check permissoins.
Am a little confused about the screen shots ... those show the same IP address when accessing.
If the site was developed on a server with a different IP address (say 192.168.1.120) then part of the migration to another server (different IP address) is to find all the references in the DB that pointed to that 192.168. IP address and change them to the current IP address - the IP address of the server to which you are migrating. There is a tool to do that: http://10.IP/admin/tool/replace/
IF using that tool, be sure to search for 'http://oldip/' and replace with 'http://newIP/' ... ie, include the http:// in front and the trailing slash at the end.
Also, *IF* Oracle Linux is like RHEL, SELinux might be running. SELinux will prevent successful migration of Moodle IF moodledata is placed outside of what apache considers it's 'working' directory ... ie, /var/www/
