“semanage port” command does not work

So, I was tasked to chagen SSH port in a CentOS server. As I did in the configuration file, the service failed to start, so after a little research I found that I should make some changes in selinux, so it would allow the default port to be changed.



So all I'd have to do is to run the commmand:



semanage port -a -t ssh_port_t -p tcp <port>


But when I do, I get the following error:



Invalid protocol
Bad portcon declaration at /etc/selinux/targeted/tmp/modules/100/base/cil:669
OSError: Error



When I try to run the command



semanage port -l



I get the following error:



`libsepol.ipproto2sepol: invalid protocol 132 found in policy (No such file or directory).
libsepol.port_to_record: could not convert port range 1 - 511 (???) to record (No such file or directory).
libsepol.sepol_port_iterate: could not iterate over ports (No such file or directory).
libsemanage.dbase_policydb_list: list handler could not extract record (No such file or directory).
libsemanage.dbase_policydb_list: could not list records (No such file or directory).
OSError: No such file or directory`


I've download all the necessary packages in order for this to work.

  • No. This is exactly what I tried and is returning the error.

  • I didn't see the -m flag in your version...?

  • The problem is not with the flag, but with the command itself.
