SELinux enforcing mode

Post by mmmnguyen »

I enabled the SELinux on the Nagios Log Server and rebooted the machine.
Now I can't open the Nagios Log Server URL. Below is the error.

Elasticsearch Database Offline
It looks like your local elasticsearch service isn't running.

Why am I getting this error?
Elasticsearch must run locally on all Log Servers due to security
restrictions when accessing the database.

You may need to run service elasticsearch start to start it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I turned off (disabled) the SELinux, I was able to see the Login Screen again.
Does Nagios Log Server support SELinux running in an enforcing mode?
Please advise.
We are with DoD and SELinux has to be enabled. (Enforcing mode).

Hello Michael, it's Brian from Nagios. It seems as though we resolved the selinux issue. Would it be ok if I close up this thread?
