[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk 2.1 | SSL Certificate Invalid when using HTTPS for host registration

Hi Vipul,

Yes, the service is running as evidenced by the output. The problem as
shown in the error message was that postgres actually can't update or
delete the table stated due to a foreign key constraint validation on a
table.

 There's a post on the list about it and the recommendation was to remove
it. Any ideas how to remove it from the DB? I'd actually like to log-in to
postgres and delete this key being referenced (assuming I know the password
for postgres).

Kind regards,
Francis
