      All I did was set /var/www/html/admin to httpd_sys_content_t

      And set /var/log/pi-hole.log to dnsmasq_var_log_t.

        @stacksofplates said in Pi-hole on Fedora has issues with SELinux:

        All I did was set /var/www/html/admin to httpd_sys_content_t

        And set /var/log/pi-hole.log to dnsmasq_var_log_t.

        That got most things resolved as I can hit the webpage now.

        chcon --type=dnsmasq_var_log_t /var/log/pihole.log
        chcon --recursive --type=httpd_sys_content_t /var/www/html/admin
        

        But after a reboot, I see this when enforcing
        0_1522818097788_76c2c81c-971d-4b3a-ad73-da06a54b93b4-image.png

        But the DNS service is running.

          I purged the audit log and rebooted.

          Still this.

          [root@pihole ~]# sealert -a /var/log/audit/audit.log
          100% done
          found 1 alerts in /var/log/audit/audit.log

          SELinux is preventing lighttpd from map access on the file /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf.

          If you believe that lighttpd should be allowed map access on the lighttpd.conf 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:
          # ausearch -c 'lighttpd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-lighttpd
          # semodule -X 300 -i my-lighttpd.pp

            While I can run that command, I do not want to. I would prefer to find the right thing I need to change because there is no reason to install all the SELinux tools on an instance just to set a permission.

              tried to load the admin page and it added some more.

              If you do not want processes to require capabilities to use up all the system resources on your system;
              Then you need to diagnose why your system is running out of system resources and fix the problem.
              
              According to /usr/include/linux/capability.h, sys_resource is required to:
              
              /* Override resource limits. Set resource limits. */
              /* Override quota limits. */
              /* Override reserved space on ext2 filesystem */
              /* Modify data journaling mode on ext3 filesystem (uses journaling
                 resources) */
              /* NOTE: ext2 honors fsuid when checking for resource overrides, so
                 you can override using fsuid too */
              /* Override size restrictions on IPC message queues */
              /* Allow more than 64hz interrupts from the real-time clock */
              /* Override max number of consoles on console allocation */
              /* Override max number of keymaps */
              
              Do
              fix the cause of the SYS_RESOURCE on your system.

                  The two things you did make it run on reboot, just no access to the GUI.
                  I suspect just the log permission change lets the app itself run.

                    Doing a fresh install now on F27 with SEL in permissive. Where is the SELinux logs stored?

                        I’ll have to look when I get home.

                        The two things you did make it run on reboot, just no access to the GUI.
                        I suspect just the log permission change lets the app itself run.

                        Yes. I didnt' look at the gui afterwards. Just noticed it was actually able to run and allowed me to get to the admin interface.

                          So did a new install on Fedora 27. Still didn't work, so I just installed it on Debian.

                            Why not permanently set SELinux to permissive instead of using Debian?

                              I could. I just deleted the instance and started over so I just chose debian. I don't ever log into this and just have the updates automatically done so it doesn't really matter what it is.

                                Confirmed working on Permissive.

                                  It always worked when set to permissive. I also preferred using permissive instead of disabling SELinux that way I can fix the errors later.

                                    I know it works on Permissive. the point was I am trying to find what it not being liked in order to change that. I can run sealert and then do whatever it says, but that means I have to install the setroubleshoot or whatever package and I do not ever want to do that in one of my guides if I can help it because it adds a lot of packages that are only needed for this one time thing.

                                    I have done it, but I didn't like it. I will likely have to do it again, but I won't like it then either.

                                      For some reasons flushing logs isn't working for me. It works for me when using Debian.

                                            SELinux is preventing lighttpd from map access on the file /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf.
                                            
                                            *****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************
                                            
                                            If you believe that lighttpd should be allowed map access on the lighttpd.conf 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:
                                            # ausearch -c 'lighttpd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-lighttpd
                                            # semodule -X 300 -i my-lighttpd.pp
