Hello Marc

About firewall, you can check ports here - 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/5.6/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#sect-Installation_Guide-Additional_Requirements-Firewall

About proxy, in this server, can you access internet web page normally ?! or do 
you are asked about auth password ?!, btw you can check the necessary conf here 
- 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/5.6/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#sect-Installation_Guide-Installation-Running_Installation_Program-HTTP_Proxy_Setup

About the sync managed by taskomatic, you have to access Channels - Manage 
Software Channels - click over your channel, after, in tab Repositories, you 
can select your repository and click in update repositories, after this click 
in under tab Sync, here you will define the sync frequency/schedule (daily for 
example) and click in schedule. You can see a button Sync Now, you can click to 
force a synchronization. You can see logs about it in 
/var/log/rhn/reposync/<channel_name>.log

Enjoy! and let me know if you have some doubt about it.

Waldirio,

I was looking for the taskomatic and in my search of the GUI, I found the 
“Spacewalk Configuration” tab with fields that include “HTTP proxy, username, 
password, … “  I do have some data in those fields, but not sure if they are 
correct.  Should these be blank?

Thanks.

Marc.

Marc, good afternoon

Works in my environment, maybe your problem was network connection in the 
moment of sync. Take a look bellow

###
[root@spacewalk ~]# rhn-satellite-exporter --list-channels
Channel List:
B = Base Channel
C = Child Channel

B centos65-base-x86_64


[root@spacewalk ~]# spacewalk-repo-sync --channel centos65-base-x86_64 --url 
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/ --type yum
#### Channel label: centos65-base-x86_64 ####
Repo URL: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/
Packages in repo:              6518
Packages already synced:          0

Although, if you are using a minor release (5) of 6.5 in this case, I recommend 
you to sync from http://mirror.globo.com/centos/6.5/os/x86_64/

Another point is, you can define the spacewalk to sync for you (I'm not sure if 
you are just forcing bu cli or preparing the command to add in your crontab for 
example), just setting in webui, the taskomatic will do this hard work for you! 
;-)

Let me know if you have another question or about the same.

Take Care

Hello all,

I’m new to spacewalk and I’m in the process of setting up a spacewalk server.  
I believe that I successfully created the Channel (labeled: 
centos65-base-x86_64) and Repository (centos65-base-x86_64) and linked them via 
Manage Software Channels.  Now I’m trying to sync the repository from CentOS 
URL and I get the following error message:

[root@nw-spcwlk-201 ~]# spacewalk-repo-sync --channel centos65-base-x86_64 
--url http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/ --type yum
#### Channel label: centos65-base-x86_64 ####
Repo URL: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/
ERROR: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: 
centos65-base-x86_64. Please verify its path and try again
Sync completed.
Total time: 0:01:00

What am I missing?

Thank you.
