Finally found the answer after reinstalling and even the fresh reinstall
didn't work. A review of dmesg showed that selinux was running. Thanks to
this link
http://howtoforge.com/installing_a_lamp_system_with_fedora_core_6_p3 I found
out how to turn off selinux and problem solved. Hope nobody else has this
difficulty.
