Thanks for the info. I found the problem; I was using a 6.6 Packages directory but forgot to update images/isolinux/repodata to 6.6 . Im guessing the old repodata was telling KS to install old package versions.

You can check server logs (/var/log/rhn/*) and catalina.out log [root@sw01 ~]# tailf /var/log/tomcat6/catalina.out Look in your reposync logs too (/var/log/rhn/reposync/*), this file will help you.

I’m currently setting up a kickstart environment to install RHEL-based Linux machines. We are connecting from client to server using a static IP. The kickstart connects to server and initializes OK, but then fails with the message during the beginning of installation: “The file iputils-20071127-16.el6.x86_64.rpm cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media.” >From the server side, there is a 404 error.

Downloaded latest SL6.6 ISO and extracted directories to /var/distro-trees/scientific6-x86_64 : a. images b. isolinux c. Packages d. repodata 3. Created a “scientific6-x86_64” distribution through the Spacewalk WebApp 4. Created a “scientific6-x86_64” kickstart profile, using the “scientific6-x86_64” software channel I’ve tried selecting “Ignore missing packages” in the kickstart profile, but the same error appears. How can I tell Spacewalk to look for the newer (current) versions of all packages?
