 Another probable cause is if you tried to move the data and conf directories (Read description on [[security|Security]] before executing the installer. The move operation must be realized only __after__ the end of the installation process.)
+__SELinux issue__
+If it still doesn't work, then probably it's a selinux issue which is not allowing the webserver process to write to these directories. You can confirm this issue by disabling selinux and try executing your php web service again (''sudo setenforce 0'').
+If the above step solves your issue, then re-enable selinux (''sudo setenforce 1''), and run following commands from terminal:
+<code>
+# grep httpd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
+# semodule -i mypol.pp
+</code>
 **PHP function xxx is not available. Maybe your hosting provider disabled it for some reason?**\\
-This means a certain function usually provided by the PHP interpreter was not found. This can mean your PHP version is too old (DokuWiki needs PHP 5.3.3 at least), you are missing a certain PHP extension (unlikely) or your provider disabled the  function for some reason.
+This means a certain function usually provided by the PHP interpreter was not found. This can mean your PHP version is too old (DokuWiki needs PHP 7.2 at least, PHP 8 preferred - see also the [[:Requirements|system requirements]]), you are missing a certain PHP extension (unlikely) or your provider disabled the  function for some reason.
 You need to fix this problem somehow or DokuWiki won't work. So either upgrade your PHP version or ask your provider to check the PHP settings.
