[Spacewalk-list] problem configuring jabber / osa-dispatcher with spacewalk 0.8

Thu Apr 29 18:22:22 UTC 2010

Something definitely went wrong in install. Looks like jabber didn't get
configured. I saw something similar previously in my proxy install which I
reported and got fixed. You aren't far off getting it configured so a
reinstall is pretty pointless. You need to enable auto registration in
jabber. Osa will then register itself if not already in the sigh fb.

 Hi,

I installed spacewalk 0.8 on a RHEL 5.3 x86_64 and spacewalk is working fine
except for jabber and osa-dispatcher.

At the beginning, jabberd was not starting at all; it resulted in a
connection failure for osa-dispatcher.

After some investigation, I corrected two problems:

-          c2s.xml was not readable for the jabber user, so i did a :
« chmod 644 /etc/jabberd/* »

-          /var/jabberd/db was not created, so I did :

o        mkdir -p /var/jabberd/db

o        chown jabberd:jabberd /var/jabberd/db

At this point, jabber started but osa-dispatcher was not able to establish a
secure connection:

Done.

I found that the line “<pemfile>/etc/jabberd/server.pem</pemfile>” in
c2s.xml was commented. I corrected this and copied the certificate from
/etc/pki/spacewalk/jabberd/server.pem in /etc/jabberd/. Now osa-dispatcher
starts fine, but I obtain following errors in syslogs:

Apr 29 17:50:59 mvdiff2 jabberd/c2s[13603]: [12] auth succeeded:
username=rhn-dispatcher-sat, resource=superclient

Apr 29 17:50:59 mvdiff2 jabberd/c2s[13603]: [12] requesting session: jid=
rhn-dispatcher-sat at my.fqdn.obfuscated.org/superclient

Apr 29 17:50:59 mvdiff2 jabberd/sm[13601]: user not found, can't start
session: jid=rhn-dispatcher-sat at my.fqdn.obfuscated.org/superclient

I suppose that I missed something in the setup process, those errors are too
big for not having been corrected: but I did not found any documentation
about that. Do you have any idea how to correct this “user not found”
problem? Did I forget something in the configuration process that could have
avoided theses problems?

Best,

Mathieu
