Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Problem after installing selinux-policy-targeted-1.27.1-2.1.noarch.rpm: msg#00100

Subject: Problem after installing selinux-policy-targeted-1.27.1-2.1.noarch.rpm
I ran up2date to get selinux-policy-targeted-1.27.1-2.1.noarch.rpm. up2date hung for a very long time at the end of the installation, so finally, I killed it. At that point, I had two versions of selinux-policy-targeted installed. Verifying each showed that all the files were correct for the new version. But just to be safe (oops), I deleted both and tried to reinstall
selinux-policy-targeted-1.27.1-2.1.noarch.rpm.

Running up2date now produces:

  # up2date
  Could not set exec context to root:sysadm_r:rpm_t.

and fails to run. After setenforce 0, I still get the message and up2date runs.

Forcing a reinstall of selinux-policy-targeted-1.27.1-2.1.noarch.rpm has no effect. Rebooting has no effect. Relabeling on reboot has no effect.
(Actually, after relabeling, rpm --verify produces

  # rpm --verify selinux-policy-targeted
  S.5....T.   /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.homedirs
)

So far, other things appear to work normally, but up2date does not work.

How can I fix this?

Thanks.
