[Spacewalk-list] Can't start OSAD in Spacewalk client?

Mon Jun 5 17:13:12 UTC 2017

Again, I don't know if this will be of use to you, but I have osad successfully running on CentOS 6 and 7.  Here are the steps I took; maybe they're helpful (please don't be offended if you've already done all of this):

“rpm -ivh http://yum.spacewalkproject.org/2.6-client/RHEL/7/x86_64/spacewalk-client-repo-2.6-0.el7.noarch.rpm”
“rpm --import http://spacewalk.redhat.com/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-spacewalk-2015”
“yum -y install rhn-client-tools rhncfg-actions rhn-check rhn-setup rhnsd m2crypto yum-rhn-plugin osad”
“rpm -Uvh http://spacewalk.mycompany.com/pub/rhn-org-trusted-ssl-cert-1.0-2.noarch.rpm”
“/usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks --force --serverUrl=http://spacewalk.mycompany/XMLRPC --activationkey=1-mycompanyspacewalkkey”
“systemctl enable osad”
“systemctl start osad”

        What's the exact error (in terminal or in /var/log/up2date)?

        Do you have osad and osa-common packages from spacewalk-client repo or
        from Fedora / CentOS / RHEL?
