Hoping someone can help;

To copy on old hard drive with multiple user accounts onto a new drive I changed the ownership recursively to all files and  folders on the old drive to root.  I must have changed the ownership on more than the old HDD because I noticed that Nautilus had locked me out of my home directory.  After the old drive was copied I changed the ownership of my user account using chown -R user_name (from the home directory).  below is a current directory list:

 drwx--x--x. 36 james james  4096 Sep  5 16:53 james
 drwx------.  2 root  root  16384 Sep  2 21:13 lost+found

I have access to  my user directories now however I have notice the following when I attempt to bring up gedit to configure Apache:

[root@cgws1 sbin]# gedit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

(gedit:2673): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to store changes into `/root/.local/share/recently-      used.xbel', but failed: Failed to create file '/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel.F2PF1V': No such file or directory

(gedit:2673): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to set the permissions of `/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: No such file or directory

I don't know if this is related to the permission/ownership issue or if it is associated wiht  the following recent adjustments made to SELinux made to set permissions for Apache to use the new DocumentRoot assignment I set up for virtual hostingon my web development server.

The document root is /home/user_name/sites

Permission settings for Apache:



SELinux settin changes:
