#1243 Outdated selinux-policy dependency in Dogtag 9
Closed: Fixed None Opened 9 years ago by edewata.

Creating a Dogtag 9 instance on RHEL/CentOS 6.x may fail due to outdated selinux-policy.

Currently the default selinux-policy on these platforms is version 3.7.19-231. Installing Dogtag 9 packages does not update the current selinux-policy. There are error messages generated during package installation, but the package installation itself will actually complete, so people might not notice the error (especially if it's automated):

  Installing : pki-selinux-9.0.3-38.el6_6.noarch                                                              1/1
libsepol.print_missing_requirements: pki's global requirements were not met: type/attribute tomcat_cache_t (No such file or directory).
libsemanage.semanage_link_sandbox: Link packages failed (No such file or directory).
semodule:  Failed!

Later when a Dogtag instance is created, it may fail with the following message:

/usr/bin/runcon: invalid context: unconfined_u:system_r:pki_ca_script_t:s0: Invalid argument

To fix the problem the selinux-policy has to be updated to version 3.7.19-260. So the dependency on selinux-policy should be updated to require the latest version.
