creating the temp file for SELinux data failed

[Sigbjorn Lie]

Hi,

I just updated SSSD on some RHEL servers, and after the upgrade I could not log on to 2 of the
machines.

The new version we're:
sssd-client-1.9.2-82.7.el6_4.x86_64
sssd-1.9.2-82.7.el6_4.x86_64

I started sssd in debug mode and an error was displayed:

(Thu May 23 22:31:58 2013) [sssd[pam]] [write_selinux_login_file] (0x0040): creating the temp file
for SELinux data failed. /etc/selinux/targeted/logins/monmEKiSb(Thu May 23 22:31:58 2013)
[sssd[pam]] [pam_reply] (0x0100): blen: 33

I proceeded to create the /etc/selinux/targeted/logins directory, restarted sssd, and now it works
OK.

Most machines upgraded without this issue.

Is this an already known bug?

Regards,
Siggi

Looks like it is known and fixed already:
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/1817

As far as I can see it is targeted for RHEL 6.5.0

HTH,

Looks like it. Thank you.
