this says it all:
yum is not happy having one repository unreachable, and fails,
not matter if the others would be fine (my observations).

Disable epel (hell, disable everything ) from setting-files in
/etc/yum.repos.d/*

Then try again.

Re: [Spacewalk-list] Client machine update issue without internet

2014-03-18 Thread Boyd, Robert 
Dhaval,

I see that the yum repolist is failing to display the server that it's 
connecting to.  You either are not cleanly registered and/or you have 
extraneous information in some of the configuration files in /etc/yum.repos.d

I suggest you try adding an entry in /etc/hosts on the client for the master 
using the same name that the master uses in DNS.  Be sure to put in the FQDN 
and the short alias form with just the name.

Then try re-registering the client as Lukas was suggesting.

After you re-register using the name instead of the IP number, please try:

Verify on the master that the client is registered.Make sure to remove any 
duplicate entry from before that is no longer communicating.  Then:

Yum clean all
Yum repolist --verbose

See what you get then.

Robert

So do you use /etc/hosts on the client to provide a name/IP address match for 
the spacewalk master server?
When you say you removed the gateway IP, do you have any routes in your route 
table?  What does route -n show?

Also, what do you get when you do this command:

As you can read from the log yum-rhn-plugin is not able to retrieve 
repository metada, when I use IP address to access SW server.

Is that your case?
If so, just use hostname that's in your SW server certificate. Or you 
can disable SSL for clients (not recommended, not tested).

Ah,
sorry I forgot:
Curl - as supplied by the CentOS repos - caused major issues for me
using the https transfer of repo-data from the SW-server.
There are (were?) some serious issues with the certificate handling.
Check if you are having curl-7.30.0 in place.
If not, get:
c-ares-1.10.0-1.0.cf.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
curl-7.30.0-2.0.cf.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
libcurl-7.30.0-2.0.cf.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
libssh2-1.4.3-6.0.cf.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
from a repository near you place them in a tar, and this on the spacewalk server
and install them i.e. using:

echo "# updating CURL and LIBCURL to 7.30!"

mkdir -p /tmp/curlUp
pushd /tmp/curlUp

wget http://spacewalkserver/pub/curlUp.tar

tar -xf curlUp.tar

sed -i "s/useNoSSLForPackages=0/useNoSSLForPackages=1/g" 
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date

yum -y localinstall --nogpgcheck *.rpm

sed -i "s/useNoSSLForPackages=1/useNoSSLForPackages=0/g" 
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date

popd
rm -rf /tmp/curlUp

...
Worth a try.

Dear Dhaval,
go to /etc/yum.repos.d/
and edit CentOS-Base.repo
for every section in the file, make sure you have the string 'enabled=0'
in place.
Then do a 'yum clean all'
and a yum repolist
and it shall only list your spacewalk channels.

Are the clients registered in the gui, if so it should show what packages can 
be updated on the clients?

Dear Dhaval, 
go to /etc/yum.repos.d/ 
and edit CentOS-Base.repo 
for every section in the file, make sure you have the string 'enabled=0' 
in place. 
Then do a 'yum clean all' 
and a yum repolist 
and it shall only list your spacewalk channels. 

Best

Hello,

Just a side note:

Spacewalk Nightly is a development version. Never ever use it for
production purpose. There can be bugs which might destroy your data.
Moreover there's no way to upgrade it to stable release.

Always use released version (as of today latest release is Spacewalk 2.1).

[Spacewalk-list] Client machine update issue without internet

2014-03-13 Thread Dhaval Oza 

Dear Sir,

We have installed&  configured Spacewalk Server 2.2 (Nightly) on CentOS 6.5 
server&  also installed client tools on client side machines.

Our goal is to get downloaded all latest packages on Spacewalk server&  it work as 
central update repository for all our Linux machine where they don't have direct 
internet connectivity&  client should get update from this Spacewalk server where 
it have always ON internet connectivity.

Our issue is that we have configured server&  client and everything work fine. But 
when we remove gateway IP from client machine to avoid internet connection it wont be 
able to get any update from Spacewalk server. Although this Spacewalk server is in same 
subnet&  having proper
internet connectivity all the time.

Please let us know what we have to check on Spacewalk server side&  client side 
for our issue.

_The Error shows below :-_
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin, security
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite.

Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base

When I trigger "yum repolist" command on client machine it shows  0 packages 
available.

And also let me know what to do on client machine and which file we have to 
check and do the changes accordingly .
