I see your point. This is what's on the web page.
>When using RHEL 6, make sure you are subscribed to following RHN channel: > >*Red Hat Optional Server 6 At first I thought I had already done this. The statement doesn't give any instruction on how to make sure. I knew I was already subscribed to RHEL6 updates and thought I had subscribed to everything. But I hadn't and didn't realize how to "make sure." I suggest adding a sentence or 2 that spells it out for those of us who might be weaker with our yum-fu. And I like cookbook instructions to be "complete" and spell out things like this. Make it so everyone knows exactly how to do it. I suggest the additional text might look like this: In order to see if you are subscribed enter this command: Yum repolist | grep rhel-6-server-optional-rpms If you see a line like this you are all set: rhel-6-server-optional-rpms Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Server - Optional 5,154 If not, you will want to subscribe by entering this command: yum-config-manager --enable rhel-6-server-optional-rpms -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Milan Zazrivec Sent: Wednesday, August 01, 2012 11:29 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] Installing spacewalk on RHEL 6.3 On Wednesday 01 August 2012 17:20:40 Boyd, Robert wrote: > I am rebuilding my spacewalk environment on a new server running RHEL 6.3. > My previous efforts were on RHEL 5.8.

The following page https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToInstall already mentions you need to do that for RHEL-6 installations. -MZ _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
