    This is a *massive* deviation from the
    installation instructions to
    only be mentioning now. (I don't remember reading
    this before in any of
    your many many threads) You've been interrupting
    spacewalk-setup,
    seeing no errors in the logs, and carrying on as
    if it was successful?

    What stage was it at when you interrupted it?

    Wondering if it's generating the SSL certificate
    and having trouble
    getting enough entropy in a vmware guest.

Nope. The SSL cert's generated, and is fine. As I said, it seemed to literally 
hang: I was watching the o and O alternating, then it froze.

However, here's what's going on now: the suggestion that I look into the o/s build 
was dead on the money. AFTER I asked the other admin, *then* he tells me, "oh, 
yeah, that's not a straight template, we locked it down as tight as we could before 
we made it a template.

#insert shrieking.h

So, I've just built a new VM, using the CentOS 5.2 net install. A *standard* 
install. The plan is for me to go through the whole spacewalk install on this, 
and see if that works. If so, then I've asked the other admin for a list of 
steps he used to lock it down, and I'll apply them one by one, and see where it 
breaks.

Two questions:
1. *Why* do the instructions want to put tnsnames.ora in /etc? The Oracle install puts it in it's regular
        location of $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin, and once I
        set my Oracle environment, I can use sqlplus with
        no trouble. Is it there for the instant client?
  2. Are the spacewalk client tools a separate, and necessary
d/l? (I'm seeing that on the CentOS howto, but that hasn't been updated since spacewalk .3.)

mark "what I get for trusting the corporate std. build...."

We actually reproduced your pxt error and discovered a few steps you should take to try and resolve the issue.

Can you verify that you have:

* oracle-lib-compat installed
* verify that /etc/ld.so.conf.d/oracle-lib-compat.conf file exists
* if it does NOT exist please reinstall oracle-lib-compat
