I have the following output as a user running crontab -l:#Ansible: backup-external chaos*/20 * * * * flock --nonblock /home/mu/.cache/backup-external.lock backup-external chaos*/20 * * * * /home/mu/bin/ddc-save-brightnessNeither job is executed. If I run them manually, they seem to work just fine.The Ansible snippet there comes from using Ansible to add this one job for my user.Looking at systemctl status crond.service -l makes it clear that the service itself is running. It seems to fail to load the crontab for my user mu due to SELinux it seems: crond.service - Command Scheduler   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/crond.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)   Active: active (running) since Mi 2016-01-27 17:51:08 CET; 1h 43min ago Main PID: 1351 (crond)   CGroup: /system.slice/crond.service           1351 /usr/sbin/crond -nJan 27 17:51:09 martin-friese.fritz.box crond[1351]: (mu) Unauthorized SELinux context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 file_context=unconfined_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 (/var/spool/cron/mu)Jan 27 17:51:09 martin-friese.fritz.box crond[1351]: (mu) FAILED (loading cron table)Jan 27 17:51:09 martin-friese.fritz.box crond[1351]: (CRON) INFO (running with inotify support)Jan 27 18:01:01 martin-friese.fritz.box CROND[3726]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)Jan 27 18:01:01 martin-friese.fritz.box anacron[3737]: Anacron started on 2016-01-27Jan 27 18:01:01 martin-friese.fritz.box anacron[3737]: Will run job `cron.daily' in 13 min.Jan 27 18:01:01 martin-friese.fritz.box anacron[3737]: Jobs will be executed sequentiallyJan 27 18:01:01 martin-friese.fritz.box run-parts[3741]: (/etc/cron.hourly) starting mcelog.cronJan 27 18:14:01 martin-friese.fritz.box anacron[3737]: Job `cron.daily' startedJan 27 19:01:01 martin-friese.fritz.box CROND[2681]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)This is on Fedora 23 and I did not change the SELinux policy, so it is probably enforcing strictly.What do I have to change in order to get the jobs running again?
User cron jobs are not being executed any more (perhaps SELinux)
