Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/nginx from read, write access on the file nginx.pid. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that nginx should be allowed read write access on the nginx.pid 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 nginx /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 unconfined_u:object_r:var_run_t:s0 Target Objects nginx.pid [ file ] Source nginx Source Path /usr/sbin/nginx Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages nginx-1.4.2-1.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-69.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive 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 2013-08-16 18:38:31 MSK Last Seen 2013-08-16 18:38:31 MSK Local ID a85d3169-0bdc-49b8-9b21-28dbcf8010f9 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1376663911.645:526): avc: denied { read write } for pid=4815 comm="nginx" name="nginx.pid" dev="tmpfs" ino=249179 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:var_run_t:s0 tclass=file type=AVC msg=audit(1376663911.645:526): avc: denied { open } for pid=4815 comm="nginx" path="/run/nginx.pid" dev="tmpfs" ino=249179 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:var_run_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1376663911.645:526): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=yes exit=EINTR a0=7fe781999b74 a1=42 a2=1a4 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=4815 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=nginx exe=/usr/sbin/nginx subj=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: nginx,httpd_t,var_run_t,file,read,write Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.9.5-301.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport
