Description Samuel Sieb 2013-05-21 18:15:18 UTC
Getting selinux errors from postfix.

setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/postfix/cleanup from 'read, write' accesses on the file /var/spool/postfix/pid/unix.cleanup.

I tried restorecon and restarting the service.  It didn't fix it.  I deleted the file, now I'm getting:

setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/postfix/cleanup from create access on the file unix.cleanup.

Details:

SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/postfix/cleanup from create access on the file unix.cleanup.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that cleanup should be allowed create access on the unix.cleanup file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep cleanup /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
