Well I've heard back from Brother and they suggest that my SElinux set up has a problem. They recommended that I do semodule -vR This gave me exactly the same error messages. Then I did semodule -vB which worked OK, but repeating semodule -vR still gives
[root@ferguson src]# semodule -vB Committing changes: Ok: transaction number 0. [root@ferguson src]# semodule -vR SELinux: Could not downgrade policy file /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.29, searching for an older version. SELinux: Could not open policy file <= /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.29: No such file or directory /sbin/load_policy: Can't load policy: No such file or directory libsemanage.semanage_reload_policy: load_policy returned error code 2. (No such file or directory). [root@ferguson src]# This is happening on two different SL 7.2 machines with SElinux installed but disabled. I even tried uninstalling selinux* but that got me into deeper trouble. [root@ferguson src]# rpm -qv selinux-policy selinux-policy-3.13.1-60.el7_2.7.noarch Is there an issue with this version of selinux???
