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.

Comment 1 Stef Walter 2015-11-09 13:00:51 UTC
Fedora 23 bug here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1279430

Comment 3 Milos Malik 2015-11-09 13:45:01 UTC
Which version of cockpit did you use? And what action triggered the AVC?

Comment 4 Stef Walter 2015-11-09 14:52:00 UTC
This is an indevelopment version of cockpit. We would like the next version to be able to write to /run/cockpit-ws

Currently Cockpit on RHEL fails due to cockpit-ws trying to write to /tmp. We would like to consolidate the runtime files in /run/cockpit-ws instead:

Comment 5 Miroslav Grepl 2015-12-18 14:59:28 UTC
We would back port all Fedora changes to RHEL-7.3.

Comment 6 Mike McCune 2016-03-28 22:59:28 UTC
This bug was accidentally moved from POST to MODIFIED via an error in automation, please see mmccune with any questions
