It seems to be complaining about the random 'r' character on the line above 
DATAONLY. That is line 84 in your configuration. However, why it appears as 'r' 
here when the program complains about an 'l', I'm not sure. Remove that line 
or, better yet, compare your configuration to the default for your distribution 
to make sure you didn't accidentally replace whole line with that single 
character.

In addition, I do not see where you added the /etc/selinux rule as you have 
claimed. Are you certain you added it?
