Description Christopher Beland 2007-02-18 19:10:04 UTC 
Description of problem:

I booted into runlevel 1, then hit CTRL-d to change into runlevel 5.  I got a
lot of avc errors (attached).

These names refer to files in a tree of custom Perl libraries that would be
loaded on httpd start for mod_perl.

RPM versions:
kernel-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6
selinux-policy-2.4.6-37.fc6
selinux-policy-targeted-2.4.6-37.fc6

SELinux is set to "Permissive" in system-config-securitylevel, and I haven't
changed the other settings there.

Comment 2 Christopher Beland 2007-02-18 19:13:04 UTC 
I should add that I ran "rmmod bcm43xx" while in init level 1.
Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2007-02-20 20:19:15 UTC 
These avc indicate apache is trying to read files labeled user_home_t.  Either
it is reading off your home directory or you moved (mv) files off your home
directory and now they are labeled incorrectly.

Similarly it is trying to read a file named session_data which is labeled tmp_t,
which httpd is not allowed to read.

You need to change the file context on these files/directories to some thing
httpd is allowed to use (httpd_sys_content_t)

If you want httpd to run on port 81 you need to tell selinux about it

semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp 81
