It was SELinux.

Your security context type wasn't right, so do this:

chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_t /yum

That will set the correct type for all files in /yum.  As John 
suggested, you should also "fix" the ownership and permissions:

chown -R root:root /yum
find /yum -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find /yum -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
