During spacewalk-setup --disconnected after database population,

* Setting up users and groups.
** GPG: Initializing GPG and importing key.
* Performing initial configuration.
* Activating Satellite.
** Loading Satellite Certificate.
** Verifying certificate locally.
** Activating Satellite.
There was a problem validating the satellite certificate: 1

Attached log shows addresses an Oracle problem. However, during installation the permissions for /etc are reset by perl-Satcon, In /var/log/rhn/rhn-installation.log, I see
        /etc/sysconfig/rhn-satellite-prep/etc -> /etc
It seems like Oracle probably couldn't read something from /etc which it felt needed to get the job done.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. #spacewalk-setup --disconnected
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
[root@vm905 ~]# spacewalk-setup --disconnected
* Loading answer file: /usr/share/spacewalk/setup/defaults.conf.
Only one database option available, assuming: oracle
* Setting up Oracle environment.
* Setting up database.
** Database: Setting up database connection.
DB User? spacewalk
DB Password?
DB SID? xe
DB hostname? localhost
DB port [1521]?
DB protocol [TCP]?
** Database: Testing database connection.
** Database: Populating database.
sh: dbhome: command not found

Comment 2 Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2008-12-12 10:46:05 UTC
The problems stems from the fact that the permissions of the /etc/sysconfig/rhn-satellite-prep/etc directory are dependent on the umask. Which in turn is caused by the fact that this directory is not owned by any package (not even) spacewalk-config.

I believe that the correct fix is to add /etc/sysconfig/rhn-satellite-prep/etc to spacewalk-config's %files list.

Comment 3 Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2008-12-12 13:59:39 UTC
Fix commited in 26dfb87e817970074b7268dac14b5b1b9f57047a and 5cd50efd750c8c4e1526c81da01dac61ebd6cb2a.
