Description Mike Willis 2017-08-08 14:36:40 UTC
Description of problem:

When installing nagios-selinux the nagios_epel module is not loaded.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

nagios-selinux-4.3.2-8.el7.x86_64.rpm


Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -ivh nagios-selinux-4.3.2-8.el7.x86_64.rpm
2.
3.

Actual results:

nagios_epel module is not loaded.

[root@konan:production: ~]# semodule -l | grep nagios_epel
[root@konan:production: ~]# 



Expected results:

nagios_epel module is loaded. Or at least there's a message displayed indicating that it failed to load.


Additional info:

Path used to load the module in the postinstall-scriptlet is different to where the module is installed.


if [ "$1" -le "1" ]; then # Fist install
   semodule -i /usr/share/selinux/packages/nagios_epel.pp 2>/dev/null || :
   fixfiles -R nagios restore || :
   
systemctl daemon-reload >/dev/null 2>&1 || : 
if [ $1 -ge 1 ] ; then 
        # Package upgrade, not uninstall 
        systemctl try-restart nagios.service >/dev/null 2>&1 || : 
fi 

fi


[root@konan:production: ~]# rpm -ql nagios-selinux | grep nagios_epel
/usr/share/selinux/packages/nagios/nagios_epel.pp
[root@konan:production: ~]# 

It is not evident that the postinstall-script fails to load the module because errors are sent to /dev/null, which is unhelpful.

Also the postinstall scriptlet seems to have a logic flaw. How will "systemctl try-restart nagios.service" ever get called? The check for $1 being greater than 1 is inside the check for $1 being less than 1.
