Description of problem: Koha cannot communicate with Zebra. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # rpm -qa | grep zebra libidzebra-modules-2.0.58-6.fc23.x86_64 libidzebra-devel-2.0.58-6.fc23.x86_64 idzebra-2.0.58-6.fc23.x86_64 libidzebra-2.0.58-6.fc23.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install idzebra (and libidzebra, libidzebra-modules, libidzebra-devel). 2. Run zebrasrv 3. Actual results: SELinux prevents Koha (in my example running as user koha:apache within httpd set to run as apache:apache) from accessing the socket although the file is world-writable: type=AVC msg=audit(1455270242.843:2264): avc: denied { connectto } for pid=16658 comm="search.pl" path="/run/koha/zebradb/bibliosocket" scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=unix_stream_socket permissive=0 Expected results: The application can contact the zebradb via the UNIX socket (provided that file permissions are set). Additional info: I think I fixed the issue, like this: https://github.com/nemobis/beic-koha/commit/3fb95488255121b714cedb969552d49b1379a551 I'm not sure whether we are expected to fix the SELinux policy for Koha ourselves or not, but I see there is a "zebra" module in semodule -l and the documentation says to report the cases where a custom policy is needed, so here I am.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
I think this is still relevant, but I can't test right now.
