Possible bug..

[Net-Care Beheer]

Well, after alot of trying i did a fixfiles relabel and right after that a touch /.autorelabel and rebooted the machine, and dovecot works again.
I still don't know what went wrong, but it works again.

  First of all, i'm hoping i'm posting this the right way, but i've tried everything that i know

  I'm having problems with Dovecot, and i've asked for help in #fedore on freenode.net, without success and they adviced me to post it here.
  This is the error i get in /var/log/audit/audit.log when i start dovecot using webmin
  type=AVC msg=audit(1134174789.681:11): avc:  denied  { read } for  pid=2908 comm="dovecot" name="dovecot" dev=dm-0 ino=67858 scontext=system_u:system_r:dovecot_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:bin_t tclass=dir

  On my screen i get "Starting Dovecot Imap: Fatal: unlink_directory() failed for /var/run/dovecot-login: Permission denied"

  When i try to start dovecot using "service dovecot start" or /etc/rc.d/init.d/dovecot start i get "Starting Dovecot Imap:                                     [FAILED]"

  I've allready tried a fixfiles and even a touch /.autorelabel without luck.

  The system is fully updated with yum, and removing/adding dovecot doesn't make a difference.


  I Hope someone can help.

  Thanks
