Hi List,

I'm trying to set up kick start trees on spacewalk 0.4 on a CentOS 5.2
server  and  I'm following the document here:

https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/KickstartDistro


Everything goes smoothly,  I can upload the kickstart tree and commit
it to the database.
When I get to 7d, to the page that says  "Step 1: Create Kickstart
Profile" I can fill in
the Kickstart Profile Label,  the Base Channel, and the Kickstartable
Tree that I checked in shows up.

The problem is that no matter what type of Virtualization type I pick,
when hit the next button,
I get red text that reads:

 * Para-Virtualization is unsupported with the selected kickstart
tree or distribution.


Which is odd, since I see the /VT folder in the kickstart directory.
Is there something in cobbler that I need to configure?

This is an ugly bug in 0.4 that is affecting Spacewalk's ability to
synchronize with Cobbler.  The error message is somewhat misleading.

Can you do the following and reply to the list:

1) From your spacewalk server's terminal:

# cobbler distro report

copy-paste the above to http://pastebin.com/  and send us the URL

2) From your spacewalk server's terminal do:

# sqlplus spacewalk/spacew...@xe
SQL> select label, base_path, NVL(cobbler_Id, 'NULL'),
NVL(cobbler_xen_id,
'NULL') from rhnKickstartableTree;

take the results of that and also copy to a http://pastebin.com/

Ok, here are the results:

cobbler distro report: http://pastebin.com/m3e22b5da
sqlplus spacewalk/spacew...@xe results:  http://pastebin.com/m6f49bcfc

Thanks,

Ok thanks, can you try again creating a Distribution with the GUI.   The
page you referenced is for older versions of Spacewalk, the new process is
here:

https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToKickstartCobbler

try going through that process and see if after creating a Distribution in
Spacewalk's GUI if you can create a Kickstart Profile from there.

I was still having problems using the second set of instructions, so I
re-installed cobbler
(made backups of the config /etc/cobbler dir, rpm -e --nodeps cobbler;
yum install cobbler, )
and ran spacewalk-setup. That seemed to clear up the issue.

I had cobbler running on this box before I put spacewalk on it. Maybe
that had something to do with it.

Thanks for the help!
~Luis

Hmm... I'm not too familiar with the Spacewalk side code of things, but in general an existing install should have the content imported automatigcally from what objects are already in cobbler. What kind of problems were you seeing? If you have seen any tracebacks/stacktraces/errors/exceptions (such as in the logs on either Cobbler or Spacewalk), let us know what they are if you still have them.
