[Spacewalk-list] Interesting OSAD Problem

This topic came up about a month ago.

The quick and dirty workaround until this gets fixed:

semanage permissive -a osad_t

Actually it's somewhat a permissions problem.... Disabling selinux and restarting now lets the service start correctly.  Looks like I need to investigate what selinux is unhappy about.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Interesting OSAD Problem

Hello All-

I'm having an interesting osad problem... osa-dispatcher starts fine on the server, but from a client, attempting to do a "service osad start" generates the "Unable to connect to jabber servers" log messages.  However, if I manually launch osad from the command line, either by running "osad _N -v -v -v -v" or simply typing "osad", everything launches just fine... I see the connection on the server side and I can successfully ping/push commands to it from the GUI.

What could be causing he difference in behavior?  I've checked and no matter what way the service is launched, it runs as root so I wouldn't think it's a permissions issue... Thanks for any help.

-Jon
