SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/erlang/erts-5.10.4/bin/beam.smp from 'write' accesses on the directory .

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

If you believe that beam.smp should be allowed write access on the  directory 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 beam.smp /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Lukas is going to work on erlang SELinux issues soon.

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2014-07-16 09:50:30 UTC
Actually it relates also with docker.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2014-07-16 12:43:10 UTC
This is just an access check, I guess we can add a dontaudit check for it.

Comment 4 Daniel Walsh 2014-07-16 12:52:04 UTC
540a3bb0eea31d85bbfc1c1c3bcb418fbc8e7b93 fixes this in git.  Needs back port to RHEL7 also.
