I finally figured it out on the CentOS client. I needed to install the yum-rhn-plugin, then remove the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid and re-register the client with the Spacewalk server.
Then I ran 'yum clean all' and 'yum check-update' and it was able to connect successfully via the both rhn_check and the Spacewalk server directly as well. --- Michael -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, April 08, 2009 4:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Spacewalk-list] Non-provisioned server registering with spacewalk Michael, >Date: Wed, 8 Apr 2009 14:57:47 -0400 >From: "Worsham, Michael" <[email protected]> > >Okay, now this is weird... > >>From the client side, I do 'yum update' and it sees the 'centos-5.3-32' >channel clearly and can update from it. > >However via rhn_check, it bugs out and spits out the errors below. <MVNCH> > raise Errors.RepoError, msg >yum.Errors.RepoError: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) >for repository: centos-5.3-32. Please verify its path and try <snip> That one I know - get rid of /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo on the client. Btw, did you install, configure, and start osad? That's what checks in with the spacewalk server. mark _______________________________________________ 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
