Description of problem: I am trying to run ejabberd with PAM authentication, but SELinux shoots that down. I have the following in my /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.conf: ---- >8 ---- {auth_method, pam}. {pam_service, "login"}. ---- 8< ---- SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/erlang/erts-5.10.1/bin/erlexec from 'execute' accesses on the file /usr/lib64/erlang/erts-5.10.1/bin/beam.smp. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that erlexec should be allowed execute access on the beam.smp 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 erlexec /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:logrotate_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:rabbitmq_beam_exec_t:s0 Target Objects /usr/lib64/erlang/erts-5.10.1/bin/beam.smp [ file ] Source erlexec Source Path /usr/lib64/erlang/erts-5.10.1/bin/erlexec Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages erlang-erts-R16B-0.3.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages erlang-erts-R16B-0.3.fc19.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-66.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.9.5-301.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 11 19:39:38 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-08-04 03:41:01 MSK Last Seen 2013-08-04 03:41:01 MSK Local ID 824622ab-b3cb-4973-b010-92fa4b201045 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1375573261.527:1299): avc: denied { execute } for pid=6368 comm="erlexec" name="beam.smp" dev="dm-3" ino=1857571 scontext=system_u:system_r:logrotate_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:rabbitmq_beam_exec_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1375573261.527:1299): arch=x86_64 syscall=execve success=no exit=EACCES a0=10e3050 a1=10e32c0 a2=7ffff0e67bd0 a3=3030303030303030 items=0 ppid=6366 pid=6368 auid=0 uid=991 gid=989 euid=991 suid=991 fsuid=991 egid=989 sgid=989 fsgid=989 ses=34 tty=(none) comm=erlexec exe=/usr/lib64/erlang/erts-5.10.1/bin/erlexec subj=system_u:system_r:logrotate_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: erlexec,logrotate_t,rabbitmq_beam_exec_t,file,execute Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.9.5-301.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport
