Description Jan Hutař 2013-09-02 12:03:44 UTC 
Description of problem:
After clean installation, when you run spacewalk-splice-checkin under splice user, it complains about permission errors on log file.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spacewalk-splice-tool-0.40-1.el6sam.noarch


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install SAM+Splice using documentation
2. # su - splice -s /bin/bash
3. $ spacewalk-splice-checkin


Actual results:
$ spacewalk-splice-checkin 
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/splice/general.log'
Unable to initialize logging config with: /etc/splice/logging/basic.cfg
[...]


Expected results:
That error should not be there and the tool should be able to write to /var/log/splice/general.log


Additional info:
mkovacik fixed this to me with `chcon -R splice:splice /var/log/splice/`.

Verified with Snapshot 6:

# ls -la /var/log/splice/general.log 
-rw-rw-r--. 1 apache splice 0 Sep 13 07:01 /var/log/splice/general.log
# ls -ld /var/log/splice
drwxrwxr-x. 3 apache splice 4096 Sep 11 12:49 /var/log/splice

SST run succeeds.
