Sorry, fat fingers I sent before I finished the last bits of command configuration settings that I did below.

Permission settings for Apache:

# chmod -R 755 sites
# cd/ home
# chmod 711 user_name

SELinux setting changes:

# /usr/sbin/setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs 1
# chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_t sites

and also:

# /usr/sbin/setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

The root . directories (and the rest of your home directory configuration changes) were excluded (hopefully).

Your gedit is using the root user. Are you working as root? [You should never work as root!]

So to immediately resolve these errors, which relate to a missing directory:

[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

you must:

# sudo su
# cd ~root/
# chmod -R a+rw /root/.local

There is a good possibility that root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel does not exist. You would make the directories then, based on what is missing:

# du -h # watch for directories under .local

# mkdir /root/.local
# mkdir /root/.local/share

And then chmod it:
# chmod -R u+rwx ~root/

Note:

chmod -R is going to do it on all existing files, not just directories.

To target all the .local directories you can use find + xargs

find .local/ -type d | xargs chmod u+wrx

That will fix these issues immediately, however you could also use gksudo which runs gedit under root permissions. To see the full configuration settings for gedit:
