Description of problem: I can't get postgresql to start on boot when using SELinux. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Kernel is 2.6.6-1.435 i686 Postgresql is postgresql-7.4.2-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable SE Linux (SELINUX=encforcing in /etc/sysconfig/selinux) 2. Set up Postgresql to run start on boot (/etc/rc5.d/S85postgresql in my system) 3. reboot Actual results: Postgresqul doesn't start and I get the following message in the log Jun 13 01:38:53 getingen su(pam_unix)[4467]: session closed for user postgres Jun 13 01:38:53 getingen kernel: audit(1087083496.937:0): avc: denied { execute_no_trans } for pid=7340 exe=/usr/sbin/prelink path=/lib/ld-2.3.3.so dev=hda2 ino=619762 scontext=system_u:system_r:prelink_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:ld_so_t tclass=file Expected results: I expect postgresql to start without error messages Additional info: It is possible to start postgresql manually after the system is booted by doing su - postgresql and make sure you id is uid=26(postgres) gid=26(postgres) grupper=26(postgres) context=user_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t and then use pg_ctl start. It is not posssible to shut it down manually though.
