Description Brian Brock 2008-12-16 16:13:35 UTC
Description of problem:
enabling selinux on luci & ricci systems running conga fails.  The luci pages for cluster creation and for listing a cluster return a message that the clients could not be reached.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
luci-0.12.1-7.el5
ricci-0.12.1-7.el5
selinux-policy-2.4.6-200.el5

How reproducible:
happens on clean installs.  If selinux is changed into permissive mode, the error message goes away and the cluster is properly displayed.  If selinux is then re-enabledaga in , the cluster is still displayed properly.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install 3 systems with luci & ricci, and selinux enabled
2. attempt to create a cluster, observe results
3. disable selinux with `setenforce 0`
4. attempt to create or view cluster, observe results
5. re-enable selinux with `setenforce 1`
6. attempt to create or view cluster, observe results
  
Actual results:
error message is given instead of view of cluster contents.  exact error message will be posted shortly.

Expected results:
no error messages, cluster created and viewed normally

when trying to create a cluster named "t1":

An error occurred when trying to contact any of the nodes in the t1 cluster.

The name does not seem to matter, all of my clusters report this error when creating a cluster, even with selinux disabled using RHEL 5.3  This never happened before using 5.2 and previous.  If you wait a few minutes and hit refresh, everything works.  Should I file a new bug on this?

Comment 3 Vinny Valdez 2009-04-20 20:39:01 UTC
I just double-checked, and although the systems running ricci have selinux disabled, the system running luci has selinux enabled, and the luci server is typically not changed, where the ricci systems are always kickstarted.  My apologies on the incorrect information, this is definitely what I am seeing.

Comment 4 Perry Myers 2009-04-21 18:05:30 UTC
We don't have selinux support lined up for rhel5.4 inclusion, so I'm going to move this bug to target rhel5.5.  Certainly when cluster suite support working with selinux, conga (ricci/luci) should as well.
