Just thought Id note that the 1.6 to 1.8 upgrade worked with one exception unrelated directly to spacewalk. The default oracle database was set to 150 processes so during a date stamp change of the schema upgrade the whole process hung. The DBAs allowed 1200 processes and a restart of the upgrade finished without a hitch.

Thanks again for the help and information.

If I understand you correct you are saying I can upgrade from 1.6 directly to 
1.8? I thought it was required to do a step by step upgrade. My objective is to 
get all the way to 2.0.

Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] 1.6 to 1.7 upgrade bug 869985 reappeared?

I am attempting to upgrade from 1.6 to 1.7 and have encountered the
following:

'SPACEWALK-SCHEMA-1.6-TO-SPACEWALK-SCHEMA-1.7/007-RHNPACKAGEGROUP-TRIM.SQ
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
spacewalk-schema-1.6-to-spacewalk-schema-1.7/007-rhnPackageGroup-trim.sql


77722 rows updated.

update rhnpackagegroup set name = substr(name, 1, length(name)-1)
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00001: unique constraint (SPACEWALK.RHN_PACKAGE_GROUP_NAME_UQ) violated


This appears to be a bug listed as fixed.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=869985

Presuming it is the same issue clearly its not fixed or the repo has
somehow reverted back which seems very unlikely. I am using
spacewalk-repo-1.7-5.el5 pulled from
http://yum.spacewalkproject.org/1.7/RHEL/5/x86_64/. Following the
directions at https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToUpgrade17.

Yes, this bug was fixed for Spacewalk 1.8, i.e. you would not hit this
problem when upgrading from any version to Spacewalk 1.8. The problem
has not been backported to Spacewalk 1.7 packages, i.e. you either
can upgrade to something later or apply that fix manually.
