diff is that i am now not using tnsnames.ora, but get the same result

It still looks like tomcat wasn't able connect to database.
What's your db connection in rhn.conf?

        # egrep 'hibernate|db_name' /etc/rhn/rhn.conf

Are you able connect to database with sqlplus?

        # sqlplus $(spacewalk-cfg-get default_db)

Does any other java based service (e.g rhn-search, taskomatic) work?

        # service rhn-search status
        # grep ERROR /var/log/rhn/search/rhn_search_daemon.log
        # service taskomatic status
        # grep ERROR /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log
