Re: [Spacewalk-list] spacewalk-common-channels doing nothing on fresh 1.6 fedora16 install

[Hoser, Jonathan Daniel Simon]

Thanks Michael for your quick response.

It was late, and today I managed to resolve a few things.

a) spacewalk-common-channels.ini
is indeed not outdated. Sorry for the false alarm.

Acutally, spacewalk-utils-1.6.6-1.fc16.noarch.rpm wasn't installed at all yet.
Makes me wonder why the binary (/usr/bin/spacewalk-common-channels) survived the
yum erase process.

So I tryed my own call and it did not work.
Then I tried an official example, and it did work.

Turns out the '*' at the end is crucial:

[root@xyz rhn]# /usr/bin/spacewalk-common-channels -u SpacewalkAdmin -p mypass 
-a i386 'fedora16'
does not work.

[root@xyz rhn]# /usr/bin/spacewalk-common-channels -u SpacewalkAdmin -p mypass 
-a i386 'fedora16*'
does work as intended.

(The official example:
Create only Centos 4 base channels for intel archs:
/usr/bin/spacewalk-common-channels -u admin -p pass -a i386,x86_64 'centos4'

does not work either - just as a testcase!
)

Sorry about the earlier stuff,

Best
-Jonathan

Re: [Spacewalk-list] centos-errata.py package_dir value

[Ege Turgay]

Hi,

I use a local repo by setting up a cronjob as

rsync -avrt --progress
rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/mirror.centos.org/5/os/x86_64/ 
/var/www/html/repos/centos/5/os/x86_64/

and setting that package_dir to /var/www/html/repos/centos/5/os/x86_64/

Hope it helps,

Ege

[Spacewalk-list] advanced search now showing installed package

[Ege Turgay]

Hi,

I have a system with an installed package that I can see via going to
the system and select List installed packages and filter by package
name would give me php-5.2 whereas 
if I go to Advanced Search and look for this in installed packages, it
would produce no results, basically I'm trying to get a list of the
systems that have this package rather than going one by one.

I would file a bug report for this however I know that specific package
is *not* in any of the software channels and I was wondering if this
would be the cause of that not showing up in advanced search.

Could someone confirm that this is not intentional and require a bug
filing?

Cheers,
Ege

Re: [Spacewalk-list] centos-errata.py package_dir value

[Peter Purvis]

Thanks Ege,

I've just tried against our updates repo, which it turns out is really out
of date which in turn causes the script to fail as it can't find the
packages.

Will grab a more recent sync now and see if that works.

Seems a bit counter intuitive that the packages are needed for the errata
script to work? Perhaps someone can explain the process.

Re: [Spacewalk-list] updating a client from outside spacewalk

[Ege Turgay]

I think you need to make sure rhn_plugin is enabled on yum

ie. yum-rhn-plugin-1.6.16-1.el5
and it's enabled in
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf

if you update the package by using rpm, I think you need to refresh
the package list by selecting one or more systems and
System Set Manager - Update Software profile

as it states in the same page If you've changed hardware on your system
or have manually installed RPMs, and those changes are not appearing on
Spacewalk, you need to schedule a profile update.

Re: [Spacewalk-list] no repodata

[Denis Zinevich]

Finally i figured out problem.
Spacewalk used system-wide java installed, with libs in /usr/share/java
/usr/share/java/postgresql-jdbc.jar was symlinked to 8.1 jdbc driver. I've 
downloaded and relinked it to 9.1 jdbc4 driver, and now everything works fine.


08.02.2012, 16:17, Denis Zinevich l...@ngc.net.ua:
 well, that didn't help.
 I've cleaned tables as you sugessted ( with no errors ), and restarted 
 services.
 When trying to single schedule run channel-repodata-bunch I'm getting same 
 error in taskomatic log.

  You may try to reinitialize quartz configuration:

  1. stop spacewalk services
  2. run following sql commands:

  DELETE FROM qrtz_job_details;

  INSERT INTO qrtz_locks values('CALENDAR_ACCESS');
  INSERT INTO qrtz_locks values('STATE_ACCESS');

  3. start spacewalk services

  By deleting the quartz configuration, it shall be reinitialized.

[Spacewalk-list] Error : 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable when I used RHNPUSH

[Ludovic BRACHET]

Hi all,

I use Spacewalk 1.6 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago).

I have 2 problems.

1)

On the RHEL 6 (which is subscribe on the RHN), I install the 
spacewalk-repo-1.6-1.el6.noarch.rpm, and when I update with yum update, it 
downloads some rhn* package, then, I have the error Cannot retrieve repository 
metadata (repomd.xml).
To correct it, I must set the parameter to useNoSSLForPackages=1 instead of 
useNoSSLForPackages=0.

Then, I'm able to do a successful yum update.

It only appears when the repository spacewalk is used then, RHEL downloads some 
rhn* package from it.

2)

I use the command reposync to grab the package from the RHN. Then I push the 
packages with rhnpush.

You can see the command line:

rhnpush --exclude=nexuiz* --exclude=root-doc* --channel=epel6_x64 
--server=https://spacewalk/APP --dir=/mnt/local_rhn/x86_64/6/epel/ -u admin -p 
password -vv -tolerant

The result:

Package 
/mnt/local_rhn/x86_64/6/epel/rubygem-state_machine-1.1.2-2.el6.noarch.rpm Not 
Found on RHN Server -- Uploading
Uploading package

Uploading package

Using POST request
While running 'packages.channelPackageSubscriptionBySession': caught
type 'exceptions.TypeError' : 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable

Then, the uploading stops and no package appears in the channels.

When I retry and retry to upload, it fails again and again with the same error.

I didn't know what to do next?
I could upload some package one by one and it works but it fails when I try to 
upload many packages.

I will try to setup a new VM with RHEL6 + Spacewalk 1.5 to try.

3)

Do you know how to increase the limits size of an uploaded package? I must 
exclude the packages nexuiz* because the RHNPUSH says 500 Internal Server 
Error when I uploaded it.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Ludovic

Re: [Spacewalk-list] Kickstart CentOS 6 Fail Spacewalk

[Jeremy Davis]

An update to this issue is if I use repodata generated from a local yum
repository it works just fine. One other note I would like to add is that
my CentOS 5 installs work just fine with the repodata pulled from
/var/cache/rhn/repodata/.

One other issue I have seen with 1.6 is with CentOS 5 kickstarts are
displaying a message about kmod  kernel is not needed. Any ideas as to the
cause of this issue?

 Hello All,

 I have been trying to install CentOS 6 using Spacewalk 1.6

 local directory and created the distribution tree. I then copied the
 repodata from /var/cache/rhn/repodata/ for the v6 64bit base (os) channel I
 have created in Spacewalk. Once I have that I then copy the comps.xml file
 from a yum repository of CentOS 6 and add the configuration to repomd.xml.
 I then try the install. It starts to perform the installation and then
 right when it starts to install packages I get the following Traceback
