I sent out an email earlier and didn't really get any feedback. However I did manage to "solve" the problem by putting selinux in permissive mode. I would like to keep selinux in enforce mode though, and I was curious as to any suggestions on what policies I need to create or what ports I need to "open" for which programs in selinux to keep any connection problems between apache and activemq from occuring.
My C code in my apache module uses the fusemq wrapper. I also have a python consumer which uses stomp. I added port 8161 to http_port_t in selinux but am unsure where to put anything else (i.e. port 61616 and 61613). Thanks!!
