Could you attach the audit.log. This avc message you attached does not make any sense. I have tracked it down what this is. The new policy must have caused a relable of the /var/run/dovecot/master.pid file or the /var/run/dovecot/master.pid file became mislabled on the last lot of updates for some reason so Dovecot could not remove it on shut down and restart. Dovecot didn't complain about the master.pid file until I turned selinux to permissive. At which point it informed of the stale pid file. I turned enforcing mode back on and I manually deleted the /var/run/dovecot/master.pid and now Dovecot runs fine. |
