This could be something as trivial as: 1. deleting /var/run/openvswitch directory and/or all its contents that were properly taggerd with one of openvswitch type 2. manually recreating this directory under wrong unconfined type. Can you post output of `ls -Z` command for /var/run/openvswitch directory and also all its contents to provide or disprove the theory I have above? > > Thanks, > Muminul > > On Fri, Jan 20, 2017 at 3:35 PM, Ben Pfaff <b...@ovn.org> wrote: >> On Fri, Jan 20, 2017 at 03:08:39PM -0800, Muminul Islam Russell wrote: >>> Hi, >>> >>> I am using 2.3.1 version and having issue with starting openvswitch >>> service with systemd. >>> >>> [root@localhost ~]# systemctl status openvswitch >>> >>> Jan 20 15:00:54 localhost systemd[1]: Starting LSB: Open vSwitch switch... >>> Jan 20 15:00:54 localhost openvswitch[3196]: Starting ovsdb-server >>> ovsdb-server: /var/run/openvswitch/ovsdb-server.pid: pidfile check >>> failed (Permission denied), aborting >> >> ovsdb-server tried to check whether it was already running, by reading >> its own pidfile, but it couldn't read it due to a "permission denied" >> error. > _______________________________________________ > discuss mailing list > disc...@openvswitch.org > https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-discuss _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list disc...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-discuss
