I just ran the "spacewalk-hostname-rename" script from the utils package. Doesn't appear to have fixed the error I was seeing below. Still have a broken package search feature. So, no change after running the script.

In the middle of working on it, it was decided to move the server (it's a virtual machine) to another location which required a server name change. This created quite a headache with all of the configuration files, certificates and other misc stuff in Spacewalk already being setup for the first name. I think I cleaned up all of the references to the old name, but still have one lingering issue that I can't seem to fix.
