[CentOS] Centos 6.5 workaround needed for selinux "Could not open policy file" bug
I read about this bug in the Centos 6.2 faq and the link showing it fixed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769859 but I am still getting it updating on a Centos 6.5 server that had selinux disabled. I want to run selinux as permissive but it won't load now on reboot. I ran the yum update to apply this latest selinux update http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2014-May/020294.html for centos-release-6-5.el6.centos.11.2.x86_64. Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction ? Installing : selinux-policy-3.7.19-231.el6_5.3.noarch??????????? ? Installing : selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-231.el6_5.3.noarch???????????? semodule: link.c:840: alias_copy_callback: Assertion `base_type->primary == target_type->s.value' failed. SELinux:? Could not open policy file <= /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.24:? No such file or directory ? Verifying? : selinux-policy-3.7.19-231.el6_5.3.noarch?????? ? Verifying? : selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-231.el6_5.3.noarch? Installed: ? selinux-policy.noarch 0:3.7.19-231.el6_5.3?????????????? I tried yum reinstall, yum remove and yum install for selinux-policy-targeted but I still receive the same error. I also enabled selinux as permissive and rebooted but selinux still will not start as permissive. Anyone have a work around to get selinux working as permissive with this condition? thx Mike
