[Spacewalk-list] Error connecting to jabber

[Ree, Jan-Albert van]

While I agree that sqlite is better than berkeleydb why not make PostgreSQL the default if the PostgreSQL database is already being set up during installation ( ie spacewalk-setup-postgresql is called )
Our modest installation (roughly 80 clients) still wasn't rock solid using sqlite (instead of crashing almost daily it became a 'once a month' thing where the DB got corrupted), only after moving to PostgreSQL do we now have an osa-dispatcher/jabber/osad setup which requires virtually no maintenance and is pretty much crash-proof.

Hi Chris,

try to look at
https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/wiki/OsadHowTo
https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/wiki/JabberAndOSAD

BTW in nightly version (upcomming 2.7) we've changed default jabberd
backend from berkeleydb to sqlite which seems to be more reliable.
