Why I cannot print
Summary
SELinux is preventing access to files with the default label, default_t.
Detailed Description
SELinux permission checks on files labeled default_t are being denied.
These files/directories have the default label on them. This can indicate
a
labeling problem, especially if the files being referred to are not top
level directories. Any files/directories under standard system directories,
/usr, /var. /dev, /tmp, ..., should not be labeled with the default label.
The default label is for files/directories which do not have a label on a
parent directory. So if you create a new directory in / you might
legitimately get this label.
Allowing Access
If you want a confined domain to use these files you will probably need to
relabel the file/directory with chcon. In some cases it is just easier to
relabel the system, to relabel execute: "touch /.autorelabel; reboot"

Additional FAQ: I have an avc denial, I'm following "I have some avc denials that I would like to allow, how do I do this?", and I've created a local.te file. The problem is, I've done this before, and if I load my new local.te file, I'll erase my previous changes, whatever they were (it's been a while; the local.te file from back then is gone). How do I merge my new changes with the existing local rules? Two ideas come to mind: 1. Decompiling the 'local' ruleset. 2. Listing the existing rulesets, so I can rename my local.te to local2.te without fear of collision (I may have generated a local2.te before). Suggestions? Thanks!
