[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk-setup fails at restarting services (CentOS7)

[Bruce Wainer]

Like you I also tried the symlink route, and had the same error. Everything was fine once I downgraded c3p0, but I am also worried about that in the long term. For now though I have frozen c3p0's version (there is a yum plugin for that). I do still have an issue with the osa-dispatcher service not being able to start that I am still working on diagnosing, but I don't think its related to the c3p0 package, which appears to be related to database access.

It was incredibly frustrating to diagnose, and almost turned me off from spacewalk entirely. I would add a note to the wiki myself, but I'd like some input before I tread on anyone's fingers.
