Hi,
I am writing this email to report an issue while using audit inside a docker container (with CentOS 7.5 as base layer). It installs fine, but, when I try to do
service auditd start, it fails with the message" "
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start auditd.service
Job for auditd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status auditd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details."
The output of the command,
systemctl status auditd.service, is:"
● auditd.service - Security Auditing Service
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/auditd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2018-07-19 18:12:50 UTC; 2min 8s ago

Can someone please help me figure this issue out.
Thank you.
