I made a set of local yum repositories according to <https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-35962>
As an example, reposync --gpgcheck -l -n --repoid=rhel-x86_64-server-5 --download_path=/var/www/localRepo/rhel-x86_64-server-5 createrepo /var/www/localRepo/rhel-x86_64-server-5 and create an appropriate /etc/yum.repos.d/local.repo, naming my repo "local-rhel-x86_64-server-5" OK, so now I want to roll this into cobbler. So I say: cobbler repo add --name=local-rhel-x86_64-server-5 --mirror=http://my.server.org/localRepo/rhel-x86_64-server-5 --mirror-locally=false --keep-updated=false And then when I say: cobbler reposync I get this: running /usr/bin/wget -q http://my.server.org/localRepo/rhel-x86_64-server-5/repodata/repomd.xml -O /var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/local-rhel-x86_64-server-5/.origin/repomd.xml received on stderr: /var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/local-rhel-x86_64-server-5/.origin/repomd.xml: No such file or directory. And the target directory (/var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/local-rhel-x86_64-server-5) is empty So I say: mkdir /var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/local-rhel-x86_64-server-5/.origin and run cobbler reposync again, and get what looks like proper responses and proper contents of the directory. So, the question/bug is: Why isn't the ".origin" directory created before trying to wget the file into it ? “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” Bill Waterson (Calvin & Hobbes) _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
