Need help with moving the data directory of Postgresql

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi

I have a FC4 box (all updates applied) on which I have a Postgresql server (standard fedora rpms) and I'm running targeted selinux policy.
The problem is that I cannot move the data directory away from /var/lib/pgsql/data with out turning selinux off.

Is there any HOWTOs out there that would be helpful?

I've tried using chcon so that the permission would be identical between the new and the old

[root@zeus ~]# ls -ldZ /var/lib/pgsql/data/
drwx------  postgres postgres system_u:object_r:postgresql_db_t /var/lib/pgsql/data/
[root@zeus ~]# ls -lZd /mnt/raid/db/pgsql/data/
drwx------  postgres postgres system_u:object_r:postgresql_db_t /mnt/raid/db/pgsql/data/

But I still get permission denied when I try to start postgresql !! If I mark the "Disable SELinux protection for Postgresql daemon" in the SELinux GUI, then it starts up fine.
But what would be the correct way to handle this?
