Description louisgtwo 2020-03-10 02:40:26 UTC
I'm trying to setup a docker container pducharme/unifi-video-controller on fedora 31. SElinux is preventing this container to mount. With selinux set to permissive the container runs fine.

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2020-03-10 12:39:55 UTC
The Container must be attempting to execute a mount command?  This would be blocked by SELinux as well as CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability.
Most likely you would need to run this container without these protections.

podman run --security-opt label=disable --cap-add CAP_SYS_ADMIN ...
