I have decided to upgrade spacewalk to the latest version 2.0, below you will find the steps that I took: % % Upgrade: % a. I have followed the instructions on the following page: % https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToUpgrade19 % b. Install spacewalk-repo % rpm -Uvh http://yum.spacewalkproject.org/2.0/RHEL/5/x86_64/spacewalk-repo-2.0-3.el5.noarch.rpm % c. Enable nightly builds % sed -i 's/enabled=0/enabled=1/' /etc/yum.repos.d/spacewalk-nightly.repo % d. sed -i 's/enabled=1/enabled=0/' /etc/yum.repos.d/spacewalk.repo
So you explicitly enabled nightly repo and disabled standard Spacewalk 2.0... % e. yum install cobbler-epel % yum upgrade % yum install rpmconf % su - postgres -c 'PGPASSWORD=spacepw; createlang pltclu spaceschema ;' % /usr/sbin/spacewalk-service stop % /usr/bin/spacewalk-schema-upgrade % f. All is 100% successful at this point, I keep on going: % spacewalk-setup --disconnected -upgrade % /usr/share/spacewalk/setup/upgrade/rhn-enable-monitoring.pl % /usr/sbin/spacewalk-service start % g. All is again 100% successful at this point, I restart the spacewalk server and can log in via admin URL and I see spacewalk has been upgraded to version 2.1 nightly That's expected according to enabled repos above. On the other hand it might be dangerous especially on production server because nightly repo can contain buggy development code and can even cause data corruption / loss. % h. All my configurations are there, and all of my systems are there. % % Issue: % % a. I log in to one of the client machine's and attempt to re-register the client to spacewalk, just to ensure it is working correctly, I issue this command: % % rhnreg_ks --force -vvv --serverUrl=http://10.99.30.144/XMLRPC --activationkey=1-3768ca29596c8b11e3d7a8cad4136446 % D: rpcServer: Calling XMLRPC registration.welcome_message % D: opening db environment /var/lib/rpm/Packages joinenv % D: opening db index /var/lib/rpm/Packages rdonly mode=0x0 % D: locked db index /var/lib/rpm/Packages % D: rpcServer: Calling XMLRPC registration.welcome_message % D: opening db index /var/lib/rpm/Providename rdonly mode=0x0 % D: rpcServer: Calling XMLRPC registration.new_system % A protocol error occurred: Status 500 , attempt #1, % Error communicating with server.
