[Open-scap] OpenSCAP Error, Missing Library?

[Anthony Davis]

Hi Przemek,

Thanks for the response, but i dont know if strace is outputting anything usefull, here is what I have found:

The rule it hangs on:
Rule ID:        SV-37379r1_rule
Title:          All interactive user home directories defined in the /etc/passwd file must exist.
Result:

strace output:

write(1, "Rule ID:\r\t\t\33[1mSV-37379r1_rule\33["..., 37) = 37
write(1, "Title:\r\t\tAll interactive user ho"..., 91) = 91
write(1, "Result:\r\t\t", 10)           = 10
wait4(13305, 0x7fff2584379c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
writev(5, [{"(#d8:seap.msg#d3::id#d8((#d15:pa"..., 242}], 1) = 242
wait4(13305, 0x7fff2584369c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
select(6, [5], NULL, NULL, NULL)        = 1 (in [5])
wait4(13305, 0x7fff2584372c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
read(5, "(#d8:seap.cmd#d3::id#d2#d6::clas"..., 16384) = 104
wait4(13305, 0x7fff25841ffc, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
writev(5, [{"(#d8:seap.msg#d3::id#d9#d8:no-re"..., 234}], 1) = 234
wait4(13305, 0x7fff25841efc, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
select(6, [5], NULL, NULL, NULL)        = 1 (in [5])
wait4(13305, 0x7fff25841f8c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
read(5, "(#d8:seap.cmd#d3::id#d3#d6::clas"..., 16384) = 100
wait4(13305, 0x7fff25841f0c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
writev(5, [{"(#d8:seap.cmd#d3::id#d2#d9::repl"..., 276}], 1) = 276
wait4(13305, 0x7fff25841efc, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
select(6, [5], NULL, NULL, NULL)        = 1 (in [5])
wait4(13305, 0x7fff25841f8c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
read(5, "(#d8:seap.msg#d3::id#d8#d9::repl"..., 16384) = 42
wait4(13305, 0x7fff258436ac, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
writev(5, [{"(#d8:seap.cmd#d3::id#d3#d9::repl"..., 126}], 1) = 126
wait4(13305, 0x7fff2584369c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
select(6, [5], NULL, NULL, NULL)        = 1 (in [5])
wait4(13305, 0x7fff2584372c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
read(5, "(#d8:seap.msg#d3::id#d9#d9::repl"..., 16384) = 4025
wait4(13313, 0x7fff25844b9c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
writev(6, [{"(#d8:seap.msg#d3::id#d47((#d11:f"..., 534}], 1) = 534
wait4(13313, 0x7fff25844a9c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
select(7, [6], NULL, NULL, NULL

Any insight you guys can give would be really helpful as im not too brilliant at reading the strace output and understanding it.

Kind Regards

Tony

Look at the output of    strace -p `pidof oscap`

If there's too much info there, you can include and/or exclude specific
syscalls (see man strace)
