Created attachment 323253 [details] setroubleshoot text Description of problem: See attached selinux_alert.txt Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [read@morgansmachine ~]$ rpm -q cups cups-1.3.9-1.fc8 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Apply new ppd to existing printer 2. 3. Actual results: There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'server-error-internal-error' Expected results: ppd applied Additional info: See attached selinux_alert.txt
The SELinux file context of that file is incorrect. Please run: restorecon -vR /etc/cups /var/run/cups What is the history of this installation? Was it a clean install or an upgrade? At what point was SELinux enabled?

It was a clean install about a year ago, f8 - due for another clean install soon:) selinux was installed enforcing from the start, this is the first time the issue has occured - but, it's coincided with installing some 3rd party ppd's and configs: http://onyxftp.mykonicaminolta.com/DownloadFile/Download.ashx?fileid=10153&productid=969 ftp://ftp.minolta-qms.com/pub/crc/out_going/linux/5450lin_ppds.tar.gz http://download6.konicaminolta.eu/konmin/servlet/KonMinMaster?path=../attachment.jsp&mode=load&id=41256849005CE173BB6ECD26E24034EEC125723D00533701&filename=mc5450_linux.zip restorecon -vR /etc/cups /var/run/cups and rm /var/run/cups/cups.sock (for Bug 471104) seem to have resolved this Thanks.
OK. I think the problem then is that the installed tar/zip files unset the SELinux file contexts.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. 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 prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 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. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
