[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk-list Digest, Vol 67, Issue 85

Thu Dec 26 14:16:59 UTC 2013

Happy holiday to you all, I am not sure if you solve the taskomatic won't start issue. If you have not, try looking at line 136 (Listen) port in your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf dir. I had the same issue on my RHEL 6.5, Spacewalk 2.0 machine, and I find out, when I put only the port number for example "Listen 80" taskomatic came alive. If you have your IP address there as in "Listen 12.34.56.78:80" taskomatic will not work or will die after starting. Not sure why, since the example on line 135 provided an example in how it should be listed. In the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf dir do a ":set number" on the command line and ...well you know the rest.

Thanks, but I?m actually using oracle as the backend. I don?t believe the database is the culprit, as I re-ran spacewalk-setup ?disconnected ?external, pointing it at a different (production vs test) oracle database that was blank. All of the tables on the new database are blank, so I don?t believe there is any cruft in the database causing this problem.

Have you restarted PostgreSQL since your out of space issue? 

You may need to do a pkill -9 on PostgreSQL and restart it to force a journal recovery.

Greetings. I?m running spacewalk 2.0 on CentOS release 6.4, using an oracle 11.2 backend. I have some troubles getting taskomatic to start, and there isn?t much useful in /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log, except that it never receives a signal from the JVM, then that it couldn?t kill the JVM: 

ERROR | wrapper | 2013/12/23 14:35:19 | Startup failed: Timed out waiting for signal from JVM. 

ERROR | wrapper | 2013/12/23 14:35:19 | JVM did not exit on request, terminated 

INFO | wrapper | 2013/12/23 14:35:19 | JVM exited on its own while waiting to kill the application. 

STATUS | wrapper | 2013/12/23 14:35:19 | JVM exited in response to signal SIGKILL (9). 

There was a RHN document about troubleshooting taskomatic (of course I can?t find it now?) which mentions verifying connectivity between taskomatic and tomcat, but AFAICT, taskomatic never makes it to listening on ports (using netstat). I tried a fresh database, and it still won?t start. I verified the RPM, I removed/reinstalled the RPM, and still no dice. Is there cache anywhere else on the system I have to clear out, or any other ideas? It was once working when I first implemented spacewalk, then the DB ran out of drive space, and it hasn?t started since. Everything else in SW works properly. 

Thanks in advance!
