It looks like mod_python was to blame.


[Sun May 13 01:24:03 2007] [error] [client 10.8.32.55] PythonHandler return_mirrorlist: Traceback (most recent call last):

Restarting httpd seemed to have fixed it.

I also noticed this SELinux audit message:

audit(1179014650.637:1171): avc:  denied  { getattr } for  pid=21393 comm="httpd" name="mirrorlist_cache.pkl" dev=xvda3 ino=129681 scontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=user_u:object_r:tmp_t:s0 tclass=file

I wonder if SELinux is to blame for some of the erratic TurboGears behavior
that we have been experiencing?
