RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:With SELinux in enforcing mode, mysqld fails when "service mysqld start" is keyed in. There is no AVC log entry. When SElLinux is put in permissive mode, mysqld starts.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):5.1.73-3.el6_5
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install mysql, mysql-server
2.Boot system
3.
Actual results:
mysqld fails to start
Expected results:
mysqld should start
Additional info:
I don't see anything special in the log. Please, try to restore SELinux context of your datadir and log file, for default configuration:
#> restorecon -r /var/lib/mysql /var/log/mysqld.log /etc/my.cnf
It seems you've run the daemon with an empty datadir, is that correct? Do you use standard paths or you use some arbitrary path for your data files?
