Description Vinicius Reis 2015-10-29 16:08:41 UTC
Description of problem:
Shutdow with a TIME parameter fails, and immediately shuts down the system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NAME=Fedora
VERSION="23 (Workstation Edition)"


How reproducible:
Always, no specific condition required.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open gnome-terminal
2. type 'sudo shutdown -h 1:30' (or any future timestamp)
3. shutdown prints an error message and imediately shuts down the system, not respecting the given TIME argument.


Actual results:
Shuts down computeri mmediately, closing applications in use, ignoring the TIME argument.

Expected results:
Shuts down computer at TIME o'clock.

Additional info:
(1) I've typed "sudo shutdown -h 1:30 2> shutdown_output.txt" to recover the error message after a system halt,  and it says:
"Failed to call ScheduleShutdown in logind, proceeding with immediate shutdown: Access denied"

(2) Systemd version:
$ rpm -qa systemd
systemd-222-8.fc23.x86_64

(3) It was working fine on Fedora 22, 21, 20.

Comment 1 Vinicius Reis 2015-11-06 05:47:24 UTC
Well, I'm not sure if systemd is causing this issue alone. Because of new SELinux policies, I needed to set it to permissive mode. Doing so, shutdown with a TIME parameter now works (it stop working if I set SELinux again to enforcing).

Now I'm really confuse about what is really causing shutdown to fail.
Please, see more at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1277987

Comment 2 Alexander Ploumistos 2015-11-08 04:02:34 UTC
I've always run shutdown as root and I've kept SELinux in enforcing mode. After upgrading to F23 and trying to schedule a shutdown, I got no SELinux alerts in my logs, but the system does shut down immediately.

Comment 3 Alexander Ploumistos 2015-11-08 04:16:20 UTC
I was wrong, it was right there in the logs, but I missed it the first time:

I can't reproduce this issue with the latest updates. Could you please verify?

$ rpm -q systemd selinux-policy
systemd-222-8.fc23.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.13.1-155.fc23.noarch

Comment 5 Vinicius Reis 2015-12-02 10:51:08 UTC
Hello.

It seems to be fixed now.
I can't reproduce this issue anymore.

$ rpm -q systemd selinux-policy
systemd-222-8.fc23.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.13.1-155.fc23.noarch

Thanks!
