[Spacewalk-list] OSA Status: offline as of unknown

[Giovanni Torres]

Apparently, jabber is very particular about its ssl configuration.  you have to make sure that the hostname in the ssl cert configured in osad.conf matches what is in the up2date conf file.  things also need to match up the jabber config files.
See here: https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/OsadHowTo
If the status says online but unknown, try deleting or renaming the osad-auth.conf file and restart osad on the client.  it will regenerate new credentials.  Try to "Ping System" again through the Web UI and see if that helps.

Hi,

Why is the System page in Spacewalk server GUI showing 'OSA Status: offline as of unknown' while osad from the client is connected to the server?

spwclient# osad status
 -v
2012-10-12 11:15:58 jabber_lib.__init__:
2012-10-12 11:15:58 jabber_lib.setup_connection: Connected to jabber server spwserver.mydomain.com
There is one client shown as 'OSA Status: online as of unknown'. The rest of the clients are all shown as 'OSA Status: offline as of unknown'. I don't see any special for this 'online' client.

Thank you!
