I have installed the Spacewalk server on a RHEL 5.2 32-bit machine. The installation went fine and am able to register the clients to it. I’m able to see the available list of packages for upgradation for each individual client but when I try to install/upgrade packages from Spacewalk server to a particular client server, it fails.

I did some trouble-shooting by checking from client side. When I run a ‘yum’ command from client side, it gives the following error:

Error: failed to retrieve repodata/primary.xml.gz from rhel-i386-server-5

error was [Errno -3] Error performing checksum

Do you have rhel-i386-server-5 channel on your Spacewalk server?
Is repomd cache created? - in Channels detail in WebUI should be Repomd: Done.

I ran 'yum clean all' on the client and tries to run satellite-sync on the 
Spacewalk server

Here is the error:

ERROR: No channels currently imported; try satellite-sync --list-channels; then
It seems you have no channels imported. You have to populate your Spacewalk first.


satellite-sync -c chn0 -c chn1...

Ran it with --list-channels, here is the error:

10:43:45 Red Hat Network Satellite - live synchronization

10:43:45    url: https://


First: you are doing live synchronization (normaly done from rhn.redhat.com) - this will not work unless you buy RHN Satellite subscription. You have to populate it with rhnpush or repo-sync:

Second: it seems you have connected satellite, since you cannot do live synchronization you may want to swich to disconnected mode: flip web.disconnected to 1 in /etc/rhn/rhn.conf
