- Oracle DB (if run on the same machine) - Apache server running mod_python and mod_perl webapps - tomcat server running the java webapp - a java search server indexing the db content for searching - another java service called taskomatic running a number of long running tasks. There are a number of things that are going on while Spacewalk is running it is NOT just a website, corporate or not. -- jesus m. rodriguez | [email protected] sr. software engineer | irc: zeus rhn satellite & spacewalk | 919.754.4413 (w) rhce # 805008586930012 | 919.623.0080 (c) +-------------------------------------------+ | "Those who cannot learn from history | | are doomed to repeat it." | | -- George Santayana | +-------------------------------------------+ _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
