Apache httpd cannot write to var_log_t fcontext /var/log/graphite-web anymore
Last modified: 2016-03-01 09:44:28 EST
Description of problem: Maintainer of graphite-web here. Somewhere between selinux-policy-3.13.1-152.fc23.noarch and selinux-policy-3.13.1-158.4.fc23.noarch Apache HTTPD stopped being able to write to /var/log/graphite-web /var/log/graphite-web should have fcontext httpd_log_t but has var_log_t. This should be fixed by adding a policy for /var/log/graphite-web think this would do serefpolicy-contrib-3.13.1/apache.fc: /var/log/graphite-web(/.*)? gen_context(system_u:object_r:httpd_log_t,s0) I just can't wrap my head on why this always worked before. Tested on a f23 vm with 3.13.1-152 to confirm apache httpd can write to var_log_t, updated to 3.13.1-158.4 and it fails... Could this be added/patched in all active Fedora branches? Or should I add the policy to the graphite-web package?
