I've just encountered a problem starting tor. When I do 'systemctl start tor' it fails and I get selinux errors in the log. There was suggestion to do full auditing with 'auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w'. Which I did and it gave the following type=PROCTITLE msg=audit(1539540150.692:60570): proctitle=2F7573722F62696E2F746F72002D2D72756E61736461656D6F6E0030002D2 D64656661756C74732D746F727263002F7573722F73686172652F746F722F6465666175 6C74732D746F727263002D66002F6574632F746F722F746F727263002D2D76657269667 92D636F6E666967 type=PATH msg=audit(1539540150.692:60570): item=0 name="/var/lib/tor/hidden_service/" inode=201616393 dev=fd:02 mode=040700 ouid=494 ogid=490 rdev=00:00 obj=system_u:object_r:tor_var_lib_t:s0 objtype=NORMAL cap_fp=0000000000000000 cap_fi=0000000000000000 cap_fe=0 cap_fver=0 type=CWD msg=audit(1539540150.692:60570): cwd="/" type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1539540150.692:60570): arch=c000003e syscall=2 success=no exit=-13 a0=562d3767da80 a1=20000 a2=0 a3=1 items=1 ppid=1 pid=18283 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="tor" exe="/usr/bin/tor" subj=system_u:system_r:tor_t:s0 key=(null) type=AVC msg=audit(1539540150.692:60570): avc: denied { dac_read_search } for pid=18283 comm="tor" capability=2 scontext=system_u:system_r:tor_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:tor_t:s0 tclass=capability type=AVC msg=audit(1539540150.692:60570): avc: denied { dac_override } for pid=18283 comm="tor" capability=1 scontext=system_u:system_r:tor_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:tor_t:s0 tclass=capability So I had a look at the permissions for /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/ and they were drwx------. toranon toranon system_u:object_r:tor_var_lib_t:s0 hidden_service Could somebody help me out here? I have no idea what to make of this. I know that tor was working for me at least a month ago. I got tor from this package: tor-0.2.9.16-1.el7.x86_64 Cheers Robin _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
