| Fixed In Version: | systemtap-1.8-8.el6 | Doc Type: | Bug Fix |
| Doc Text: |
Prior versions of the systemtap-server subpackage relied on useradd(8) to create a home directory for the stap-server user, but in some cases this was prevented by selinux or other configuration. Current versions instead create the .../var/lib/stap-server directory within the RPM, so useradd's constraints are not applied.

Please try again with selinux "# setenforce 0" in effect during installation. This is a perennial problem, see bug #853456, bug #863832, .... By the way, I'm unable to reproduce this on my rhel6 VM; can you identify your selinux* version numbers? I had the same problem with i386 workstation variant. Turning off selinux didn't help.

I reproduced it on RHEL-6.3 Server x86_64 with "setenforce 0". Hi Michal, can Frank log into your machine to see the behavior? devel_ack+, speculating that the explicit mkdir/%dir suggestion from bug #863832 cures this too. A build is available in brew; please check it out. (Please note I have been unable to reproduce this problem myself, so am guessing that the change in 1.8-8 might help.) Ok; Based on Comment #13 setting VERIFIED. Thanks. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
