OSPF not neighboring

The culprits are a HP 5412 ZL and a HP 2930m. I got them working last week while testing. The 5412 is in vsf so 2 physical devices. Had to move one to a different area and coincidentally it won't neighbor with the 2930.

Verified that vsf is working. I have another ospf instance running on our old core switch so ospf is definitely running on the 5412. Hello timers, etc are identical (didn't edit them), no auth on both switches.

When I do show ip ospf neighbor on the 5412 side I notice that the state is stuck in INIT and on the 2930 it's blank. Also I can't ping to the other switch. Vlans are identical. No IP address conflict, basic /24 so it's not a subnet issue. Even changed the fiber cable.

Only other thing I can think of is the sfp. Any ideas?
