[Spacewalk-list] OSAD can't connect to host and port - Fresh Install of Spacewalk 2.7

[Robert Paschedag]

- This was a fresh install and NO client works?

- You don't see any osa-dispatcher or jabber errors in /var/log/messages?

Which jabber DB backend do you use? Default BDB?

Normally, I do not recommend just removing the jabber database but if
really NO clients works on a fresh install, stop jabber and
osa-dispatcher on the server, remove (rm -rf /var/lib/jabber/db/*) the
jabber database (in case of BDB) and restart the osad on the clients.

In case, everything is setup correctly (FQDN, correct SSL cert als for
jabberd), this should just work.
