Re: [cobbler] FW: Problem with 2.2.1

You were correct, I did not have the DHCP package installed. However, there are problems with the two semanage commands from cobbler check in 2.2.2-1. 1. /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/lib/tftpboot/.*" && /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/www/cobbler"/images/.* There is a double quote (") after cobbler belongs at the end of the line. /usr/sbin/semanage: bad option The correct syntax is : /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/lib/tftpboot(/.*)?" && /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/www/cobbler/images(/.*)?" 2. /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_rw_t "/var/lib/cobbler/webui_sessions/.*" The already report incorrect type httpd_sys_content_rw_t should be httpd_sys_rw_content_t. The correct syntax is: /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t "/var/lib/cobbler/webui_sessions(/.*)?" 3. After making the above changes, I restarted cobblerd and ran cobbler sync with SELinux in enforcing mode: I got the following: ask started: 2012-04-20_101424_sync task started (id=Sync, time=Fri Apr 20 10:14:24 2012) running pre-sync triggers cleaning trees removing: /var/www/cobbler/images/rhel62-x86_64 removing: /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default Exception occured: <type 'exceptions.OSError'> Exception value: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default' Exception Info: File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/utils.py", line 1247, in rmfile os.unlink(path) Exception occured: <class 'cobbler.cexceptions.CX'> Exception value: 'Error deleting /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default' Exception Info: File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/remote.py", line 89, in run rc = self._run(self) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/remote.py", line 184, in runner return self.remote.api.sync(self.options.get("verbose",False),logger=self.logger) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/api.py", line 701, in sync return sync.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/action_sync.py", line 110, in run self.clean_trees() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/action_sync.py", line 209, in clean_trees utils.rmtree_contents(self.pxelinux_dir,logger=self.logger) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/utils.py", line 1259, in rmtree_contents rmtree(x,logger=logger) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/utils.py", line 1264, in rmtree return rmfile(path,logger=logger) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/utils.py", line 1253, in rmfile raise CX(_("Error deleting %s") % path) !!!

TASK FAILED !!! RHEL 6.2 python 2.6.6 For the SELinux issue, "cobbler check" should give you a couple of commands to run to correct that issue. As for the second, it looks like you need to install the dhcpd server package.
