Hi, thanks for your hint.
I found about 36000 packages which do not belong to a channel. I thought that spacewalk removes all packages which are associated only with that channel. The redhat network satellite documentation describes this as it default behavior: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Network_Satellite/5.4/html/Channel_Management_Guide/sect-Channel_Management_Guide-Custom_Channel_and_Package_Management-Deleting_Software_Channels.html "Removing a channel via the website automatically deletes all packages associated only with that channel. Packages that are also associated with other channels are retained."

Normally, if you delete channels the RPMs within will not be deleted! Please check it under Channels -> Managing Software Channels -> Managing Software Packages Kind Regards Dirk -------------------------------------------------- From: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 14, 2011 3:44 PM To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] Cannot delete software channel > Hi Jan, > > I found the following message within the catalina.out log. > ============================================================== > Dec 14, 2011 3:04:14 PM org.apache.jk.core.MsgContext action > WARNING: Error sending end packet > java.net.SocketException: Broken pipe > at java.net.SocketOutputStream.socketWrite0(Native Method) > at > java.net.SocketOutputStream.socketWrite(SocketOutputStream.java:109) > at java.net.SocketOutputStream.write(SocketOutputStream.java:153) > at org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket.send(ChannelSocket.java:538) > at > org.apache.jk.common.JkInputStream.endMessage(JkInputStream.java:127) > at org.apache.jk.core.MsgContext.action(MsgContext.java:302) > at org.apache.coyote.Response.action(Response.java:183) > at org.apache.coyote.Response.finish(Response.java:305) > at > org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler.invoke(JkCoyoteHandler.java:205) > at > org.apache.jk.common.HandlerRequest.invoke(HandlerRequest.java:291) > at > org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket.invoke(ChannelSocket.java:775) > at > org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket.processConnection(ChannelSocket.java:704) > at > org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket$SocketConnection.runIt(ChannelSocket.java:897) > at > org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:685) > at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:636) > Dec 14, 2011 3:04:14 PM org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket > processConnection > WARNING: processCallbacks status 2 > ============================================================== > > But the channel seems to be deleted. > > I can't see a change in disk usage after the channel deletion. > After which time is the allocated space released? > > Thanks for your help. > > Regards, > Silvio > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jan Pazdziora > Sent: Wednesday, December 14, 2011 2:36 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] Cannot delete software channel > > On Wed, Dec 14, 2011 at 01:05:06PM +0000, [email protected] > wrote: >> Hello, >> >> we run spacewalk 1.5 with a postgres database backend. >> >> If I try to delete my fedora channel I got these message: >> ===================================================================== >> = >> ============================== >> 500 Error - Internal Server Error >> >> You may have reached this page in one of the following ways: >> You've found an error in the site.
