What precise output do you get upon:
	# /sbin/service auditd restart

Output I get is 
Starting auditd:                                           [FAILED]


And what is your audit configuration (under /etc/audit)?

Below is the content of /etc/audit/auditd.conf file

#
# This file controls the configuration of the audit daemon
#

log_file = /var/log/audit/audit.log
log_format = RAW
priority_boost = 3
flush = INCREMENTAL
freq = 20
num_logs = 4
dispatcher = /sbin/audispd
disp_qos = lossy
max_log_file = 30
max_log_file_action = ROTATE
space_left = 75
#space_left_action = SYSLOG
space_left_action = email
action_mail_acct = scook@xxxxxxxx
admin_space_left = 50
admin_space_left_action = SUSPEND
disk_full_action = SUSPEND
disk_error_action = SUSPEND



No output in /var/log/audit/audit.log?

No entry gets logged into /var/log/audit/audit.log


BTW I forgot to mention this in my earlier emails...sorry....sorry, I
hope this might help. Audit used to work and stopped working, this is
the sequence of events happened before audit stopped.

1. I set SELinux to disabled (I think, no sure about permissive), since
apache and java app was causing lot of issues while startup. To debug
this issue I had to disable selinux.

2. Finally I figured it was something else that caused apache and java
app errors. 

3. Then I enabled SELinux and created /.autorelabel and rebooted it.
When I was going through system check list then I found out that audit
was starting. Here is the last couple of entries (on Feb 29th, 08) in
/var/log/audit.log

4. I once manually ran fixfiles. When did I run this? I don't remember
the sequence.



Thank for the help.
