You may have had better luck with a more recent version of HTCondor. 
v8.3.8 is pretty old (~1.5yrs) at the rate things move in the world of 
Linux, and HTCondor development is pretty active.  For instance, I 
believe starting with v8.4.10+  defaults for HTCondor have been updated 
for a better out-of-box experience with SELinux.  For instance, see
  https://htcondor-wiki.cs.wisc.edu/index.cgi/tktview?tn=5835

If you are just starting out w/ HTCondor, I'd suggest the latest stable 
series release available at the HTCondor home page - repos are at
  https://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/instructions/
You can find this page by going to "http://htcondor.org";, click on 
"Download" from the top menu, then click on the first link which is 
"install HTCondor from a repository".

Todd
