[Spacewalk-list] RHN taskomatic won't start

[miller3489 at comcast.net]

Happy holiday all, I am relatively new to the Linux world. It seems you are experiencing the same problem I had with taskomatic a few months back. You mentioned moving to a new machine, check your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf dir. look 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.

I assume you rebooted since your disk full error right?
