dgilmore fixed up our jabber configs to work on 2.2 yesterday, so
updated spacewalk-config and spacewalk-setup packages correct this, but
you probably need to be on a fresh system before it will work. (i.e.
not a system where you tried and failed to setup spacewalk, not sure
why but Dennis can probably clarify)
the issue was that there were inconsistent passwords in jabber config
files. jabberd randomly generates a password in %post so we cantdefault
ours. we write out our own randomly generated password when we install the
package. but you really don't want updates to mess with it. so it only
happens on package install.
What currently happens to jabber configs during spacewalk 0.4 -> 0.5 upgrade
is that the new c2s.xml, s2s.xml, sm.xml are created, but <secret /> and
<pass /> tags remain empty -> s2s fails to start (glibc exception).
a less hackish way to deal with it would be
to generate the password in spacewalk-setup and write it out to the configs
when you setup spacewalk. this would involve alot more work but ultimately
would be cleaner, its something we should look at post 0.5
If we don't solve this now, no 0.4 -> 0.5 upgrades will be possible.
Never mind the fact that the change in spacewalk-config will mess up current
Satellite upgrades.

Please forgive this intrusion but looking at the roadmap, func will
replace osad in spacewalk 0.7. So there is just two minor versions of
spacewalk until osad goes away and I'm guessing that there won't be a
release of satellite based on spacewalk 0.5 or 0.6. If this
assumption is correct, changes to the spacewalk.conf shouldn't impact
on future Satellite releases.
Also given the problems with osad and fedora 10 right now is it
feasible to just integrate func into spacewalk now?
I feel that we are pretty close to the end/finish of getting Jabberd
working with F10. As for when osad is replaced with func - I am not
certain if it will land on 0.7 - we have a lot of other things being
considered we may want to get in sooner for folks. It was placed on the
roadmap 9 odd months ago as a goal. We should be adding and shuffling a
few things soon, once 0.5 is out and we can look more forward :)

Just looks like a lot of pain to fix a component that is being dropped
in the near future.
