[Spacewalk-list] Osad errors on Spacewalk 2.2 Server

[Boyd, Robert]

I am using an NFS share as my storage for the spacewalk repositories under /var/satellite.  I discovered today that I needed to do these:

setsebool -P httpd_use_nfs 1
setsebool -P spacewalk_nfs_mountpoint 1

Those 2 adjustments resolved a number of problems that I was seeing.

I’m now successfully running rhnpush.

I found the fix while running “denied” entries in  /var/log/audit/audit.log through audit2why

type=AVC msg=audit(1423517214.815:213656): avc:  denied  { add_name } for  pid=25064 comm="httpd" name="Deployment_Guide-de-DE-5.8-1.el5-noarchTA2GNf" scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 tclass=dir

        Was caused by:
        One of the following booleans was set incorrectly.
        Description:
        spacewalk_nfs_mountpoint

        Allow access by executing:
        # setsebool -P spacewalk_nfs_mountpoint 1
        Description:
        Allow httpd to access nfs file systems

        Allow access by executing:
        # setsebool -P httpd_use_nfs 1

One issue turned out to be an SElinux issue with osa-dispatcher.
