I have gotten *nowhere* with the 500 error on the 64-bit machine. I told my 
boss that, and he figured that since the other admin had set up spacewalk .1 on 
a 32-bit system, we'd try that. So, being in a VMware environment, we built a 
32-bit CentOS system. 
I 
  a) installed Oracle, followed all the directions, 
  b) turned selinux permissive
  c) installed spacewalk
  d) FIXED IT'S BROKEN INSTALL of RHN, by
        chgrp apache /etc/rhn/rhn.conf
        chmod g+r /etc/rhn/rhn.conf
  e) got to the website, 
  d) created an activation key
  f) created the user rhnpush
and tried to go to channels->manage.

Apache 500 error. Guess what error shows up in /var/log/httpd/error_log?
[Wed Feb 04 14:31:17 2009] [error] Execution of 
/var/www/html/network/software/channels/manage/index.pxt failed at Wed Feb  4 
14:31:17 2009: user_role_acl_test called with no $pxt->user authenticated at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/RHN/Access.pm line 60.

EXACTLY the same as on the 64-bit version.

If it was up to me, I'd say spacewalk that this is POINT-4, and NOT ready for 
production, and recommend we look elsewhere.

However, he still wants this up, so I'll ask again: what's wrong?

Has anyone installed spacewalk .4, from scratch, on CentOS 5.2, after the 
middle of last week?

Oh, btw, does it want sendmail running as a daemon?

And is /var/lib/tomcat5/webapps/rhn of any importance, since tomcat ignores it, 
being inside the host appBase?

      mark, the unbelievably frustrated
