Can you post the /etc/hosts and /etc/sysconfig/network ? 
if not... check this one: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/327903

Yes, really, that was all. 

Here is the output from the very verbose osa-dispatcher start: 

/usr/sbin/osa-dispatcher -N -v -v -v -v -v -v -v 
--> <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><stream:stream to='<FQDN SW SERVER>' xmlns='jabber:client' xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' version='1.0'>

<-- <proceed />

Is that really all?? 

With this information only, it is impossible to help. 

You can try to run osa-dispatcher manually 

Stop it 

/etc/init.d/osa-dispatcher stop 

Run it manually 

/usr/sbin/osa-dispatcher -N -v -v -v -v -v -v -v 

and post errors you get.

Can you provide the entries after a "/etc/init.d/osa-dispatcher restart" from /var/log/rhn/osa-dispatcher.log ?

I'm sorry, I just realized that I should have provided more information. 

    1. This is a RHEL 6.8 server 
    2. SW v2.6. 

Also, we use a signed cert and the certificate expired January. I inquired on this list and I was told that I only needed to update the cert for the website portion of the cert that they cert used to communicate between the systems did not need to be changed. 

I'm guessing its a cert issue from some of the research that I did, but I'm not sure what I should update, or if I really need to. 

Thanks

osa-dispatcher is down and won't start. I get the following error when trying to start it: 

Starting osa-dispatcher: Spacewalk 43238 2018/03/12 10:17:13 -05:00: ('Traceback caught:',) 

Spacewalk 43238 2018/03/12 10:17:13 -05:00: ('Error caught:',) 

ERROR: unhandled exception occurred: (can't write str to text stream). 

[FAILED] 

Any suggestions? 

Thanks
