:SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd from using the 'signal' accesses on a process.
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that httpd should be allowed signal access on processes labeled unconfined_t by default.
:Then you should report this as a bug.
:You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
:Do
:allow this access for now by executing:
:# grep httpd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2012-05-31 17:37:36 UTC
Why is apache sending a signal to a user process?  Did you run a service that httpd can send a signal to without using an init script?

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2012-06-04 11:57:51 UTC
I believe this happens.

Comment 3 Red Hat Bugzilla 2023-09-14 01:29:33 UTC
The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days
