I encounter the problem of Socket error 13: Permission denied (connecting to localhost:11300) on apache on centos 6.5, i dont know if this is a linux problem or not.

prod.ERROR: exception 'Pheanstalk_Exception_ConnectionException' with message 'Socket error 13: Permission denied (connecting to localhost:11300)' in /var/www/html/vendor/pda/pheanstalk/classes/Pheanstalk/Socket/NativeSocket.php:35

I've never seen a Permission denied error attempting to connect to a TCP port… and I've never used SELinux. So I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's something to do with SELinux or some similar security layer.

Did you fix it? the same problem. CentOS 6,

Thanks much!

For anyone else who stumbles on this issue, this is SELinux preventing the http user accessing the beanstalkd port.

Quick fix: sudo semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp 11300
