Description of problem: 1. Executed openstack-demo-install 2. After successful completion of above command accessed http://localhost/dashboard SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd from 'name_connect' accesses on the tcp_socket . ***** Plugin connect_ports (85.9 confidence) suggests ********************** If you want to allow /usr/sbin/httpd to connect to network port 8774 Then you need to modify the port type. Do # semanage port -a -t PORT_TYPE -p tcp 8774 where PORT_TYPE is one of the following: dns_port_t, http_port_t, kerberos_port_t, ocsp_port_t. ***** Plugin catchall_boolean (7.33 confidence) suggests ******************* If you want to allow system to run with NIS Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'nis_enabled' boolean. You can read 'None' man page for more details. Do setsebool -P nis_enabled 1 ***** Plugin catchall_boolean (7.33 confidence) suggests ******************* If you want to allow HTTPD scripts and modules to connect to the network using TCP. Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'httpd_can_network_connect' boolean. You can read 'httpd_selinux' man page for more details. Do setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1 ***** Plugin catchall (1.35 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that httpd should be allowed name_connect access on the tcp_socket 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 Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:unreserved_port_t:s0 Target Objects [ tcp_socket ] Source httpd Source Path /usr/sbin/httpd Port 8774 Host (removed) Source RPM Packages httpd-2.4.4-2.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-24.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.9.0-0.rc5.git1.301.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Apr 2 20:37:45 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen 2013-04-04 11:27:04 IST Last Seen 2013-04-04 11:27:16 IST Local ID 8d022b39-138c-4803-94c3-60f2f2c02e0b Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1365055036.659:530): avc: denied { name_connect } for pid=1336 comm="httpd" dest=8774 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unreserved_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1365055036.659:530): arch=x86_64 syscall=connect success=no exit=ECONNREFUSED a0=d a1=7f42cf1de2e0 a2=1c a3=0 items=0 ppid=1264 pid=1336 auid=4294967295 uid=48 gid=48 euid=48 suid=48 fsuid=48 egid=48 sgid=48 fsgid=48 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=httpd exe=/usr/sbin/httpd subj=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: httpd,httpd_t,unreserved_port_t,tcp_socket,name_connect audit2allow #============= httpd_t ============== #!!!!

Why is apache trying to connect to 8774?

Looks like we need a new defition for this port.
Added.
