Hi, thanks for the response, it is very much appreciated!
I started over completely, built fresh RHEL 7. 4 Followed directions exactly, zero deviation from published wiki, installation failed (install db log output at bottom). That error is identical to the bug report filed in bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=903487 That is a very very old bug, and following the steps in this bug report resolved it. But why? Still also stuck on the rhnlib error. I've built it out now 3 times on RHEL 7.4 on fresh installs. Same errors. I do not understand how others have built on RHEL 7 and not seen the createlang bug? The error message, and resolution, are nearly the same as the bug report for Spacewalk <1.9 -- I commented out the createlang piece since plpgsql is already there..so it doesn't fail. As far as rhnlib.....my system pulled in the rhnlib package in the spacewalk27 repo as a dependency. Should that not be the case? Should I remove that and install the rhnlib package from Redhat? Note: Forwarding request to 'systemctl enable postgresql.service'. Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/postgresql.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/postgresql.service. Hint: the preferred way to do this is now "postgresql-setup initdb" Initializing database ... OK /usr/bin/spacewalk-setup-postgresql: line 165: [: 018446744073692774399: integer expression expected Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start postgresql.service ^[[3;J^[[H^[[2Jcreatelang: language "plpgsql" is already installed in database "spacewalkschema" ^[[3;J^[[H^[[2J On 01/08/2018 03:19 AM, Michael Mraka wrote: > Eric: >> No, it started out as a clean install.
