FreePBX 13 running on CentOS 7(EC2): 403 Forbidden

Current system configuration:
CentOS Linux 7 x86_64 AMW EC2 AMI
Apache v2.4.6
FreePBX v13 (Successfully Installed based on instructions: http://wiki.freepbx.org/display/FOP/Installing+FreePBX+13+on+CentOS+7#InstallingFreePBX13onCentOS7-Disableselinux)

Installation went without any hiccups however I am now having issues accessing the FreePBX v13 GUI. I am getting a “Forbidden You don’t have permission to access /admin” on this server error. When running fwconsole debug this error stands out:

Issue has been resolved. I ended up reinstalling using centos user and running each command as sudo.
