?Dear Spacewalk users,
All the Kickstart scripts generated by Spacewalk contains a snippet that tries to update / install a version of libxml2 using the wrong CPU architecture. The system being installed over PXE is a x86_64 machine but the Kickstart script tries to install the i686 version of libxml2. This is the offending part of the script: # Kickstart config file generated by Spacewalk Config Management # Profile Label : CAPtestRH6 # Date Created : 2014-08-27 11:32:49.145428 install text network --bootproto dhcp ... %post --log /root/ks-rhn-post.log # --Begin Spacewalk command section-- ... mkdir -p /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional cd /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional wget -P /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional http://ESAC-DSNM-LC03P.om.dsntb.inet/download/package/f9b41e82f845cdbd54db71bd83dc74d40e21babf/0/2/34576/rhnlib-2.5.22-15.el6.noarch.rpm http://ESAC-DSNM-LC03P.om.dsntb.inet/download/package/ee3fa57809af84816682156c6b5e788c13e08c47/0/2/63732/pyOpenSSL-0.13.1-1.el6ost.x86_64.rpm http://ESAC-DSNM-LC03P.om.dsntb.inet/download/package/23e1c75cec1a424c00d290a2bb4ee2994d299058/0/2/34145/libxml2-2.7.6-14.el6_5.2.i686.rpm http://ESAC-DSNM-LC03P.om.dsntb.inet/download/package/9c1c81e588caa4484a8af41f0d6f9dab50a494d0/0/2/31461/libxml2-python-2.7.6-14.el6_5.2.x86_64.rpm rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs --replacefiles /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional/pyOpenSSL* /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional/rhnlib* /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional/libxml2-python* /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional/libxml2* ... The interesting piece of information is that only libxml2 is using the wrong CPU architecture (i686) but pyOpenSSL and libxml2-python are using the right CPU architecture (x86_64). I've been trying to debug why this is happening. It seems to me that the Kickstart file is being generated by the following Java class: https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/blob/eddc93b6ea9abbe246a29eedefb5f4665b56d1c8/java/code/src/com/redhat/rhn/manager/kickstart/KickstartFormatter.java. I've also tried enabling log4j debugging by modifying /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/rhn/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties? and uncommenting the following line: log4j.logger.com.redhat.rhn=DEBUG But I can't seem to find any useful debugging information in /var/log/tomcat6/catalina.out as generated by KickstartFormatter.java. Not sure if this is the case because KickstartFormatter.java is not being called or because log4j is misconfigured. Any help? ?Regards ________________________________ Este mensaje y sus adjuntos se dirigen exclusivamente a su destinatario, puede contener información privilegiada o confidencial y es para uso exclusivo de la persona o entidad de destino.
