Re: [Spacewalk-list] Configuration File Import Problem
On the client system, rhn_check reported the following:
D: do_call configfiles.upload (68, ['/etc/X11/xorg.conf'])
XML-RPC error while talking to http://spacewalk.domain.com/CONFIG-MANAGEMENT:
cannot marshal None unless allow_none is enabled
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/rhn/config_client/rpc_cli_repository.py", line 120, in
put_files
self.system_id, action_id, params)
File "/usr/share/rhn/config_client/rpc_cli_repository.py", line 51, in

File "/usr/share/rhn/config_common/repository.py", line 365, in rpc_call
sys.exit(2)
SystemExit: 2
D: Sending back response ((6,), 'Fatal error in Python code occurred', {})
The rhn_server_xmlrpc.log file recorded the following:
xmlrpc/queue.get(110003, 2, 'checkins enabled')
xmlrpc/up2date.login(110003,)
xmlrpc/registration.welcome_message('lang: None',)
xmlrpc/queue.submit(110003, 68, [6])
xmlrpc/queue.get(110003, 2, 'checkins enabled')
xmlrpc/up2date.listChannels(110003,)
Thanks!

Hello,
Please reply with the relevant logs/output from:
spacewalk-server# tail -fn0 /var/log/rhn/* /var/log/httpd/*
/var/log/tomcat6/catalina.out
(temporarily disable osad/jabberd if you're using it)
(schedule import)
spacewalk-client# rhn_check -v
Thanks,
Josh

[Spacewalk-list] rhn_check hangs if no internet access is available
Hi I'm experiencing the same problem as reported by the original poster. None of the provided solutions seem to work. Does anybody have any recommendation as to how to avoid this? I've included the original post below for reference. Thanks tom Hi Folks, I've nearly finished setting up a Spacewalk server to provision CentOS 5.4 (initially). Machines on the company LAN have limited internet access, they do not have access to remote repositories, only the local Spacewalk server. So in a %post section of my kickstart I have some commands to wipe the default repos from /etc/yum.repos.d. However, Spacewalk is inserting a call to rhn_check into the Kickstart that gets run before my %post section, so the repos are still there and the command hangs for a goodly while trying to see if the default repositories are faster than the local Spacewalk server. It gives up eventually, but the pause is unacceptably long. Any suggestions on how I can either * wipe /etc/yum.repos.d before rhn_check is run * stop the .repo files from being copied down in the first place * stop rhn_check running (I don't believe it is vital at this point, I can add to my %post section if it is?) * otherwise stop the command from hanging around?

No problem. Here's how I did it, piggybacking on the file preservation stuff: === mkdir -p /tmp/ks-tree-shadow/etc/yum.repos.d/custom cat << EOF > /tmp/ks-tree-shadow/etc/yum.conf [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum reposdir=/etc/yum.repos.d/custom/ keepcache=0 debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log distroverpkg=centos-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=1 plugins=1 # Note: yum-RHN-plugin doesn't honor this. metadata_expire=1h # Default. # installonly_limit = 3 # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d/custom EOF I have manage to resolve this issue with a probably non-recommended work around. I have modified the redhat_register snippet in /var/lib/cobbler/snippets to add this line before the rhnreg_ks # Start sed -i '/^gpgcheck=.*$/aenabled=0' /etc/yum.repos.d/Cent* sed -i 'x; G; /^\(.*\)\n\1$/ d; g; p; d' /etc/yum.repos.d/Cent* [ -f "/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf" ] && sed -i -e 's/^gpgcheck = 1$/gpgcheck = 0/g' /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf # End Cunning. Also in regards to the yum upgrade issue, we use puppet to manage our systems and I have added a class to ensure that CentOS mirrors are always disabled. If we could change the order of the post snippets then that would make things a lot cleaner. Yep. That was a mentioned as a possibility in the past. jh ___ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
