I have two Cobbler Servers - one old one I set up almost two years ago, and another one I am currently trying to build from scratch.
The problem is that I cannot get the new one started up properly.
Cobbler 2.2.3 on 64 bit RHEL 5
Here are some of the problems :
I am not using RHEL's httpd due to local practice of having multiple "stove-pipe" web stacks on each server.
The apache instance is in /opt/site/cobbler/data/apache instead of /var/www On the old Cobbler, I used RHEL-httpd and sym-linked /var/www/(cobbler/ cobbler_webui_content) to another partition.
On the old one, I was running everything from the hardware IP On the new one, I am using a vhost
On the old one, netstat says I have one httpd listening on <host-ip>:80, and one listening on 0.0.0.0:443 On the new one, I have one httpd listening on <host-ip>:80, and one listening on <host-ip>:443
Both have a listener on 127.0.0.1:25151 (python)
The first problem is that everything works on the old one and on the new one, I get this:
[root ~]# cobbler sync httpd does not appear to be running and proxying cobbler, or SELinux is in the way. Original traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/cobbler/cli.py", line 184, in check_setup s.ping() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1096, in __call__ return self.__send(self.__name, args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1383, in __request verbose=self.__verbose File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1137, in request headers ProtocolError: <ProtocolError for 10.1.1.134:80/cobbler_api: 302 Found>
From the other end, the Web UI comes up but I cannot get past the login screen and I see no errors in the logs.

I got up on IRC this morning and James helped me figure out that the file “cobbler.conf” was messed up. He gave me a link to the GitHub version of the file and I am now up and running.
Thanks again, James.
