Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Nikola Pajkovsky 2010-05-20 09:46:47 UTC
Update your selinux-policy. Dan wrote policy a few days ago. Should I close it?

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2010-05-20 14:36:18 UTC
Please close it as a duplicate of the relevant policy bug.

Comment 3 Denys Vlasenko 2010-05-20 15:28:48 UTC

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 593906 ***

Comment 4 Denys Vlasenko 2010-05-20 18:23:35 UTC
Please erase all abrt data (rm -rf /var/*/abrt*; yum erase abrt) (note - this will delete all crashes you currently have) and try this build:

https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/buildinfo?buildID=132768

It _should_ have it fixed, but confirmation from you will make me feel more sore.

Comment 5 Jiri Kastner 2010-05-21 07:34:43 UTC
confirmed, abrt is starting
