Description of problem: When trying to start nginx.service by systemd, based on extended configuration file to add reverse proxy to my app, SELinux is not able to allow to listen tcp port 8001. When trying to add the port number to enable name_bind of NGINX using semanage or semodule, the return is an error based on the message "Bad boolean declaration at line 148 of /var/lib/selinux/targeted/tmp/modules/100/virt/cil" How reproducible: Based on the following AVC of selinux: type=AVC msg=audit(1468330300.710:994090): avc: denied { name_bind } for pid=1776 comm="nginx" src=8001 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unreserved_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket permissive=0 type=SERVICE_START msg=audit(1468330300.721:994091): pid=1 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 msg='unit=nginx comm="systemd" exe="/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=failed' Tried to allow http_port_t to listen on tcp port 8001 using semanage # semanage port --add -t http_port_t -p tcp 8001 Re-declaration of boolean virt_sandbox_use_fusefs Failed to create node Bad boolean declaration at line 148 of /var/lib/selinux/targeted/tmp/modules/100/virt/cil OSError: [Errno 0] Error Same happens when creating a new policy and try to install it: # grep nginx /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol ******************** IMPORTANT *********************** To make this policy package active, execute: semodule -i mypol.pp # semodule -i mypol.pp Re-declaration of boolean virt_sandbox_use_fusefs Failed to create node Bad boolean declaration at line 148 of /var/lib/selinux/targeted/tmp/modules/100/virt/cil semodule: Failed!

Found the issue on my systems. They have stable docker (that have packages only for Fedora 23) installed and docker-engine-selinux-1.11.2-1.fc23.noarch was causing the issues on virtualization policies. Docker community is trying to solve it - https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/23981 After remove all docker packages from my systems I could use semanage and allow the necessary ports on my system. Closing this issue.
