This has been "doing my head in" as the British will say. I've been battling it for days now. A post to Fedora forums and irc hasn't helped. You guys are my last resort. It goes like so:
type=AVC msg=audit(1358529889.481:315): avc: denied { associate } for pid=1522 comm="httpd"name="access.log" scontext=system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_rw_content_t:s0tcontext=system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 tclass=filesystem
Was caused by:
Unknown - would be allowed by active policy
Possible mismatch between this policy and the one under which the audit message was generated.
Possible mismatch between current in-memory boolean settings vs. permanent ones.

Thanks for any assistance.
