OS: CentOS-5.5
Earlier today I attempted to upgrade a production server from 8.1 to
8.4 using the pgdg-84-centos.repo. I say attempted because I could
never get it to support ssl connections and as that is a requirement
I had to roll back to 8.1.
Whatever was the cause of the ssl problem I also encountered a
surprising number of SELinux violations. The following details the
SELinux settings that I ultimately had to apply as a local module.
This took a considerable period of time as each had to be triggered
in turn in order that the error be identified.
#============= postgresql_t ==============
allow postgresql_t var_lib_t:dir rmdir;
allow postgresql_t var_lib_t:file { write getattr link read unlink
append };
Is this to be expected?
