      I think I found the command used to fix things.

      chcon -v --type=dnsmasq_var_log_t /var/log/pihole.log

      That was the only thing sitting in my command history at least. Wish I could remember where I found it.

      Any lighttpd errors?

      I didn't notice any.

          Yup.

          SELinux is preventing lighttpd from map access on the file /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf.

          If you believe that lighttpd should be allowed map access on the lighttpd.conf file by default.
          Then you should report this as a bug.
          You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
          Do
          allow this access for now by executing:
          # ausearch -c 'lighttpd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-lighttpd
          # semodule -X 300 -i my-lighttpd.pp

              All I did was set /var/www/html/admin to httpd_sys_content_t

              And set /var/log/pi-hole.log to dnsmasq_var_log_t.

                That got most things resolved as I can hit the webpage now.

                chcon --type=dnsmasq_var_log_t /var/log/pihole.log
                chcon --recursive --type=httpd_sys_content_t /var/www/html/admin
                

                But after a reboot, I see this when enforcing

                But the DNS service is running.

                  I purged the audit log and rebooted.

                  Still this.

                    While I can run that command, I do not want to. I would prefer to find the right thing I need to change because there is no reason to install all the SELinux tools on an instance just to set a permission.

                      SELinux is preventing sudo from using the sys_resource capability.

                      If you do not want processes to require capabilities to use up all the system resources on your system;
                      Then you need to diagnose why your system is running out of system resources and fix the problem.
                      
                      According to /usr/include/linux/capability.h, sys_resource is required to:
                      
                      /* Override resource limits. Set resource limits. */
                      /* Override quota limits. */
                      /* Override reserved space on ext2 filesystem */
                      /* Modify data journaling mode on ext3 filesystem (uses journaling
                         resources) */
                      /* NOTE: ext2 honors fsuid when checking for resource overrides, so
                         you can override using fsuid too */
                      /* Override size restrictions on IPC message queues */
                      /* Allow more than 64hz interrupts from the real-time clock */
                      /* Override max number of consoles on console allocation */
                      /* Override max number of keymaps */
                      
                      Do
                      fix the cause of the SYS_RESOURCE on your system.

                      If you believe that sudo should have the sys_resource capability by default.
                      Then you should report this as a bug.
                      You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
                      Do
                      allow this access for now by executing:
                      # ausearch -c 'sudo' --raw | audit2allow -M my-sudo
                      # semodule -X 300 -i my-sudo.pp

                          The two things you did make it run on reboot, just no access to the GUI.
                          I suspect just the log permission change lets the app itself run.

                            Doing a fresh install now on F27 with SEL in permissive. Where is the SELinux logs stored?

                                Yes. I didnt' look at the gui afterwards. Just noticed it was actually able to run and allowed me to get to the admin interface.

                                  So did a new install on Fedora 27. Still didn't work, so I just installed it on Debian.

                                    Why not permanently set SELinux to permissive instead of using Debian?

                                      I could. I just deleted the instance and started over so I just chose debian. I don't ever log into this and just have the updates automatically done so it doesn't really matter what it is.

                                          It always worked when set to permissive. I also preferred using permissive instead of disabling SELinux that way I can fix the errors later.

                                            So did a new install on Fedora 27. Still didn't work, so I just installed it on Debian.

                                            Why not permanently set SELinux to permissive instead of using Debian?

                                            Confirmed working on Permissive.

                                            It always worked when set to permissive. I also preferred using permissive instead of disabling SELinux that way I can fix the errors later.

                                            I know it works on Permissive. the point was I am trying to find what it not being liked in order to change that. I can run sealert and then do whatever it says, but that means I have to install the setroubleshoot or whatever package and I do not ever want to do that in one of my guides if I can help it because it adds a lot of packages that are only needed for this one time thing.

                                            I have done it, but I didn't like it. I will likely have to do it again, but I won't like it then either.
