I only noticed yesterday evening that the automatic remote backups, triggered twice daily via a user crontab, had stopped working after the upgrade from F22 to F23 (performed last weekend). I found log messages like the following: Jan 23 19:42:01 localhost.localdomain crond[1111]: (meike) Unauthorized SELinux context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 file_context=unconfined_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 (/var/spool/cron/meike) Jan 23 19:42:01 localhost.localdomain crond[1111]: (meike) FAILED (loading cron table) Unfortunately, restorecon only displays a warning about missing the default context for that file; I also removed the crontab with "crontab -r" and recreated it with "crontab -e", but this results in the same SELinux context - the backup doesn't run, and I see the same log message mentioning SELinux again. Does the latest SELinux policy require userspace changes in crontab?
I get this too, and I too recently upgraded from : Jan 24 10:20:37 jukebox crontab[19006]: (mythtv) BEGIN EDIT (mythtv) Jan 24 10:21:44 jukebox crontab[19006]: (mythtv) REPLACE (mythtv) Jan 24 10:21:44 jukebox crontab[19006]: (mythtv) END EDIT (mythtv) Jan 24 10:22:01 jukebox crond[8384]: (root) Unauthorized SELinux context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 file_context=unconfined_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 (/var/spool/cron/root) Jan 24 10:22:01 jukebox crond[8384]: (root) FAILED (loading cron table) Jan 24 10:22:01 jukebox crond[8384]: (mythtv) Unauthorized SELinux context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 file_context=unconfined_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 (/var/spool/cron/mythtv) Jan 24 10:22:01 jukebox crond[8384]: (mythtv) FAILED (loading cron table) ls -alZ /var/spool/cron total 12 drwx------. 2 root root system_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 4096 jan 24 10:21 . drwxr-xr-x. 14 root root system_u:object_r:var_spool_t:s0 4096 sep 10 10:23 .. -rw-------. 1 mythtv mythtv unconfined_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 127 jan 24 10:21 mythtv -rw-------. 1 root root unconfined_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 0 mar 13 2014 root ls -lZ /usr/sbin/crond -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root system_u:object_r:crond_exec_t:s0 70152 jul 13 2015 /usr/sbin/crond
