Hello again,
I was able to install Oracle 10gR2 on RHEL4U4 with selinux in
targeted enforcing mode. No selinux messages in /var/log/messages
or dmesg. I found a couple of scripts that will start and shutdown
the database and enterprise manager on boot and shutdown. I had a
couple of problems with this part and I am not sure if selinux is
the problem or not. Let me explain then I will post the code.
I created a file called oracle in /etc/rc.d/init.d. I ran chkconfig
oracle reset. I then ran service oracle start. The database
wouldn't start. oracle calls the script dbstart which needs
ORACLE_HOME defined. If I add a export ORACLE_HOME=/path/to/oracle
to dbstart everything works. If I remove the export then the
database won't start. I was under the assumption that when I set
ORACLE_HOME in oracle it would be able to be used by dbstart. This
does not appear to be true. Is this a selinux problem, or did I
misunderstand something? To get the database to start I added the
export ORACLE_HOME to /etc/profile. Also when I do a init 6 or init
0 the oracle service doesn't shutdown i.e. no shutting down oracle

I would doubt this is an SELinux problem. You can always check for
avc messages in /var/log/messages. You can also temporarily turn off
enforcing mode "setenforce 0", then try it. If it is still broken
while SELinux is in permissive mode, it is most likely not an SELinux
problem.
SELinux is not causing the environmnet variable problem I discribed.
I will leave the ORACLE_HOME in /etc/profile and call it done.
On a side note, shouldn't selinux messages go into a /var/log/selinux
file instead of messages?
In RHEL5 they go to /var/log/audit/audit.log if auditing is turned on.
Thanks,
