How to debug SELinux problems

This page explains information that should be included when filing bugs related to SELinux. Problems involving SELinux should generally be filed against selinux-policy or selinux-policy-targeted, not the component that is triggering the error.

If you encounter a problem where SELinux is denying permission or access inappropriately, include the full text of the AVC message which is logged. This will be in /var/log/audit/audit.log if auditd is running, or otherwise in /var/log/messages.
