Greetz,

So I have cobbled together a basic policy for Splunk residing

in /opt/splunkdashboards/.

I followed Dan's blog to do the basics.

So I've added all the AVC messages to the splunkdashboards.te and restarted

Splunk with run_init...

Now, no more AVC messages but after a few seconds Splunk crashes.

Nothing in the debug log.

There is a crash log, seems to be a different thread each time crashing.

If I use the browser UI to work with Splunk, it does a few tasks then something about

"Helper process is in an unknown state due to previous failure"

and then bang!

Seems to be thread permissions?

I'm lost, nothing in the log and no more AVC messages, where to from here?

I have tried so hard so far, I don't want to be a coward now and hit "setenforce 0".

I must learn how to do this.

I'm unsure as to mailing list etiquette, do I post all the policy files, Splunk log etc.?

Please advise.

Any help appreciated, thank you.
