3.7. cgconfig Service Fails to Start

If the cgconfig service fails to start, look for AVC messages in the /var/log/audit/audit.log SELinux audit log file. The error messages could indicate incorrect SELinux labels in the following files and directories:

Use the restorecon -v filename command to restore the correct SELinux labels for each of the files:

# restorecon -v /etc/cgconfig.conf
# restorecon -v /etc/cgrules.conf
# restorecon -rv /cgroup

This restores the correct SELinux labels in the /etc/cgrules.conf file.

Next, start the cgconfig service using the following command:

# service cgconfig start
