Description Miroslav Suchý 2008-11-25 14:28:16 UTC

Description of problem:
When I run (with Monitoring and Monitoring Scout enabled):
  service Monitoring start 
I got this error:
...

2008-11-25 15:33:35 NPBootstrap: START HAD ERRORS


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Spacewalk 0.3 + git patches

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. enable EPEL repo
2. install spacewalk
3. enable Monitoring
4. enable Monitoring Scout
5. /sbin/rhn-satellite restart
  
Actual results:
error above

Expected results:
no error

Additional info:
The problem is that Monitoring code is writen with V1 of Class::MethodMaker.
V2 of Class::MethodMaker do not support "grouped_fields", which we use.
We have in our repo perl-Class-MethodMaker-1.12. But in EPEL is perl-Class-MethodMaker-2.08. Therefore when you run yum upgrade MonitoringScout will stop working.

So, Mirek, it's time you fixed that monitoring code, huh?

Comment 3 Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2009-01-15 10:14:31 UTC

With the 2.08 version of Class::MethodMaker

  # rpm -q perl-Class-MethodMaker
  perl-Class-MethodMaker-2.08-4.el5

the following monitoring

  # rpm -q spacewalk-monitoring
  spacewalk-monitoring-0.4.3-1.el5

starts just fine:

# /usr/sbin/rhn-satellite start
