After running for more than a week on a fixed policy, httpd suddenly wants more privileges and refuses to serve web pages without them:

It, and cgi scripts it runs, are trying to access files in /var/cache and /var/run

/var/cache/ssl_gcache_data.sem

and

/var/run/httpd.mm.995.sem

I made up a new file type for the /var/run file, 'httpd_var_run_sem_t' and could do that for the ssl_gcache_data.sem file but wonder why this apparent change of behavior after so long.

I apologize if this is off-topic.
