looking into this more it appears to be an SSL error of somekind but is slightly odd in that RHEL5 clients do not suffer the same issue only RHEL6 as if i use http rather than https in the up2date config it works fine for RHEL6. perhaps what complicates this slightly is that my proxies are in HA pairs meaning only 1 takes traffic at a time and the one that is active is the one that holds the VIP, where the VIP and the proxy services are controlled using heartbeat. The VIP address is what is in up2date config and this has never been an issue until RHEL6. The cert that is used on the proxies has the FQDN of the spacewalk server and not the FQDN of the proxy VIP but registrations and https api calls through the proxy work just fine so i am slightly stumped. for RHEL5 clients, that work just fine, i see the following in the ssl_request_log of the proxy [23/Dec/2010:22:29:32 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 126 [23/Dec/2010:22:29:32 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 906 [23/Dec/2010:22:29:32 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 1093 [23/Dec/2010:22:29:32 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "GET /XMLRPC/GET-REQ/rhel-5-x86_64-01122010/repodata/repomd.xml HTTP/1.1" 871 for a RHEL6 client that fails i get the following [23/Dec/2010:22:27:55 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 905 [23/Dec/2010:22:27:55 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 1087 [23/Dec/2010:22:27:57 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 905 [23/Dec/2010:22:27:57 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 905 [23/Dec/2010:22:27:57 +0000] xx.xx.xx.xx TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 905 so as you can see the GET for the repomd.xml never happens, and the client reports Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: rhel-6-x86_64-01122010. Please verify its path and try again anyone have any clues as to how i can debug this further? thanks _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
