Hello all, just to give you an update: I now have Spacewalk 8 installing and running on CentOS 8.
I have created pull requests for all my modifications. Couple of issues I noticed straight away: - When installing the setup packages, some dependencies seem to be not automatically installing (spacewalk-selinux, taskomatic,...) - the password field at the first registration. It does not show a green tick when the password is OK. (optical issue) - The overview page is pretty empty. Not sure if this is just due to an empty system or of this is an issue. - When creating a repo, CSRF token issues/403 show up. I expect these things to show up at some places then. Clicking through the rest, I do not see any issues on the pages at first glance. To try this yourself, get started with a minimal CentOS 8 in 12 lines: systemctl disable firewalld; systemctl stop firewalld # no need to play with individual ports dnf config-manager --add-repo https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sbluhm # packages that still need to be put to COPR echo "gpgcheck=0" >> /etc/yum.repos.d/raw.githubusercontent.com_sbluhm.repo dnf -y copr enable sbluhm/python-packages; dnf -y copr enable sbluhm/java-packages # stuff to move to spacewalkproject dnf -y copr enable sbluhm/nightly # as soon as the official nightly builds with my pull requests, I will update this section dnf -y config-manager --enable PowerTools dnf -y module enable javapackages-tools:201801/common dnf -y install epel-release langpacks-en langpacks-de glibc-all-langpacks # without the langpacks, Postgresql will not run. dnf -y update python3-dmidecode # own version required to install python2-dmicode rpm -e yum # remove yum 4 to install yum 3 dnf -y install spacewalk-setup spacewalk-setup-postgresql tomcat osa-dispatcher spacewalk-search spacewalk-backend-sql-postgresql spacewalk-taskomatic spacewalk-java spacewalk-java-postgresql spacewalk-selinux # not all dependencies are strangely installed so doing it all here. spacewalk-setup You can visit my personal project note to get the latest working installation instructions (currently same as above): https://www.bluhm-de.com/content/os-tools/en/applications/spacewalk/installing-spacewalk-nightly-on-centos8-rhel8.html Open topics: - How will the Spacewalk Project continue? - Remove Python 2 scripts. - Update to latest/newer required packages if possible. - Test for non-working items - Update package requirements/dependencies in the spec files. - Add official RH Java packages to copr/java-packages. How would we go about that?. - Add official RH Python packages to copr/python. How would we go about that?. - Add spec files of modified packages to spacewalkproject/spec-tree.
