Description of problem: Started xfce4-panel SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/lightdm from 'append' accesses on the file .xsession-errors. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that lightdm should be allowed append access on the .xsession-errors file 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 lightdm /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 Target Objects .xsession-errors [ file ] Source lightdm Source Path /usr/sbin/lightdm Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages lightdm-1.6.0-10.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-57.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.9.8-300.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Jun 27 19:24:23 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 4 First Seen 2013-07-06 04:04:33 VOLT Last Seen 2013-07-12 00:36:48 VOLT Local ID 25c17d08-d7b8-4f0d-850d-07855b14e45c Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1373575008.721:416): avc: denied { append } for pid=1044 comm="lightdm" name=".xsession-errors" dev="sda9" ino=1836445 scontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1373575008.721:416): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=16889e0 a1=441 a2=180 a3=7fff04c14a30 items=0 ppid=955 pid=1044 auid=519 uid=519 gid=521 euid=519 suid=519 fsuid=519 egid=521 sgid=521 fsgid=521 ses=1 tty=(none) comm=lightdm exe=/usr/sbin/lightdm subj=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: lightdm,xdm_t,home_root_t,file,append Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.5 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.9.8-300.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport
