[Spacewalk-list] Could not connect to search server

Tue Mar 3 18:47:16 UTC 2015

I’ve tried rhn-search cleanindex, no results from that though. I thought that iptables had been disabled, but it hadn’t. I disabled it using service iptables stop and service ip6tables stop, then rebooted, but no change.
I installed spacecmd, and ran the softwarechannel_regenerateneededcache, but nothing new there either.
All the ports are open via the external fw. The db is local on the box as well.
Thanks for replying.

Have you tried running service rhn-search cleanindex

You might also want to look at the spacecmd command "softwarechannel_regenerateneededcache"

The exception though appears to be network related.. are you running a host firewall? Do you have the below ports opened?

  *   Outbound open ports 80, 443, 4545 (only if you want to enable monitoring)
  *   Inbound open ports 80, 443, 5222 (only if you want to push actions to client machines) and 5269 (only for push actions to a Spacewalk Proxy), 69 udp if you want to use tftp

Very new install of 2.2 on centos 6.5. I’ve never been able to search for packages or systems on this install. I’ve added /usr/share/rhn/search/classes/log4j.properties per this page: https://wiki.novell.com/index.php/SUSE_Manager/JavaLogging and restarted, but /var/log/rhn/search/rhn_search.log is still at 0 bytes. No log updates when I attempt to search in spacewalk. /var/log/search/rhn_search_daemon.log just shows this:
