Hello,I have searched the archive but was not able to find an answer this, is there a required version of yum to support spacewalk > 0.5 and the yum-rhn-plugin? I have had spacewalk running since version 0.2 and have been using CentOS 4.X and Centos5.2 clients. After upgrading from 0.5 to 0.7 none of the client machines are able to use yum to talk to the spacewalk server. I upgrade from 0.5 to 0.6 and then directly to 0.7. At this point I noticed the rhn commands and my connectivity to the spacewalk server worked fine however on the clients the yum command would fail with: --snip-- [r...@hub-us-web-tst-2 ~]# yum install strace Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "rhnplugin" plugin Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * datahub-developer-52-qa: hub-na-spc-pro-1.int.pason.com * updates-i386: yum-update.int.pason.com * addons-i386: yum-update.int.pason.com * base-i386: yum-update.int.pason.com * datahub-i386-52-qa: hub-na-spc-pro-1.int.pason.com * extras-i386: yum-update.int.pason.com * base: yum-update.int.pason.com * updates: yum-update.int.pason.com * datahub-base-52-qa: hub-na-spc-pro-1.int.pason.com * addons: yum-update.int.pason.com * extras: yum-update.int.pason.com datahub-developer-52-qa 100% |=========================| 871 B 00:00 datahub-i386-52-qa 100% |=========================| 877 B 00:00 primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 40 kB 00:00 Error: failed to retrieve repodata/primary.xml.gz from datahub-i386-52-qa error was [Errno -3] Error performing checksum --snip-- The logs on the spacewalk server showed everything was successful, a tcpdump confirmed. On the clients I tried several things. Finally I took the yum version from CentOS 5.3 and installed it on the clients and everything now works as expected. (yum-3.2.19-18.el5.centos.noarch.rpm) It looks like there is yum version requirement?
You've not set the yum repos to be the wrong hash have you? You want to make sure it's set to sha1, under Manage Software Channels and a specific channel. jh _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
