Is it Fedora? CentOS? Which version of setroubleshoot?

The browser should show the same list of alerts as the following command:

$ sealert -l '*'

It's a list of all stored alerts.

If an alert is ignored, setroubleshood server doesn't sent DBUS signal with
the alert and therefore seapplet doesn't show a notification. But when you open
sealert browser, the alert should be there.

There's another button `List All Alerts` where you can list all alerts and see
their statuses and how many time they occurred.


If you have 'No Alerts' then you might be just lucky.

You can try to generate an alert to check if it works correctly. Something like:

$ sudo runcon system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 bash -c 'hostname'
