I ran into an issue yesterday that had me stumped for quite a while. I provisioned a new host and was trying to run rhn-profile-sync afterwards. The software profile update went through fine but the hardware profile sync kept failing with a 500 error. I looked in the httpd logs on the spacewalk server and spent about a half hour deciphering the traceback only to realize the traceback was being generated when doing a mail call. It turns out that postfix on my spacewalk server had stopped (I think I did that intentionally and then forgot to start it up).
I guess I just wanted to find out, should a hardware sync really rely on mail being available? It's probably trivial, but if a traceback/500 response is not intended I could see that as something that could really trip someone up. _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
