What puzzled me is starting postgresql failed at boot

Running the initscript should be exactly the same as the boot process.
Starting the service manually (without the initscript) would be
different though, as no domain transition would happen.
Both
service postgresql start
and
su - postgres
PGDATA=/home1/pgsql pg_ctl start
started successfully if I logged in as root or under "su -" from my
mortal uid.
(The postgresql initscript uses "runuser" instead of "su" IIRC.)
Do the AVCs logged during the boot process show the process running as
postgresql_t? If you do a "ps uaxZ", is it running as postgresql_t or
unconfined_t?
It's running under postgresql_t.
Does it run under postgresql_t if you start it using pg_ctl?
I've just responded to another poster with almost exactly the same
issue. I think this might be worth a wiki page.
It would be a good idea.
I'll do that when the other poster's last issue (default file contexts)
is resolved.
