Re: [Spacewalk-list] New install, no repos will sync
Hello there: We have a new install of Spacewalk 2.0 on Centos 6.5, and have followed the documentation carefully. When we setup a channel with some repositories, and execute the following, it fails: Spacewalk-repo-sync -channel channel_name 'Repo URL : http://url/repomd.xml ERROR: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) ... ' However, when using wget, repomd.xml does download successfully, so we don't believe this to be a network issue. Yes, we have unchecked the 'disconnected' checkbox under admin options. Also, we don't see anything obvious in the log files. What else could we be missing?

No Problem Jonathan, and you should be fine doing that, I've got some repo's like MongoDB that don't have GPG entries and it sync's fine. Thank you very much, Stuart. Now it's syncing! Also curious though, re channel settings, are the GPG settings mandatory, or can we leave them blank?

Re: [Spacewalk-list] timestamps and the spacecmd API
Jon and Robert --
Thanks for your responses! I was aware of those modules and have been
going around in circles with them for longer than I'd like to admit.
I guess I was hoping that someone far better at python than me would have
the few lines of code already written that work with comparing the
completed_date value from the spacewalk API to some current timestamp.
There appear to be about 100 potential ways of doing this, but I've been
unable to fit the pieces together for a single one of them! I'll blame
that on my newness to writing python.
If anyone has any code that is working in python against the spacewalk API
and able to evaluate how long ago an event completed, please let me know?
This has got to be easier than I've made it thus far.
Best wishes,
Andy

You can do both with the datetime[1] module in Python.
E.g.
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
completed_date = datetime.strptime('20131230T23:00:24', '%Y%m%dT%H:%M:%S')
if completed_date datetime.now() - timedelta(hours=-5):
print 'Need to do something'
The dateutil (python-dateutil RPM) module is also nice about parsing a
variety of string representations of date and times.

Yes, that part I'm aware of. But the cloning of channels in our environment uses the spacewalk-clone-by-date command.

Re: [Spacewalk-list] spacewalk-repo-sync
That is due to a change in the behavior in the command I believe the change happened between 1.7 and 1.8 if I remember correctly.The old behavior was to do it as they were downloaded but it was a lot slower than doing the update to the channel as a bulk operation. In addition if you accidentally sync the wrong repo to a channel and realize it before it completes than you can abort it without having to do a massive cleanup of the channel so its a good change all around.That said you aren't the first person to be confused so you are right there probably should be a note in the documentation.-- Sent from my HP Pre3On Feb 6, 2014 15:30, Jeff Horn - NOAA Affiliate jeff.h...@noaa.gov wrote: That would be a nice tidbit to add to the docs.

I called the channel centos6.5-base-i686.

Will it move the packages to the correct channel once the sync is complete or is there another step that I missed to actually sync the packages from centos to the channel I have created? I want to set up many channels and sync each source url into those channels. jeff ___ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list ___Spacewalk-list mailing listSpacewalk-list@redhat.comhttps://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list___ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
Re: [Spacewalk-list] Assigning a gpg key to a clone channel
What initial clone? We clone the official channel.
