Hello, please see the snippet of my kickstart file:

But IF there is a dependency to vim, why does it fail to install? I currently running Version 2.3 - I thought maybe the update would help kickstarting CentOS. kind regards, Philipp ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeffery Kalchik" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, November 16, 2015 7:55:15 PM Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] Kickstarting CentOS Packages will get auto-selected when they’re listed a prerequisites or requirements of requested packages. A package that you’re installing has vim as a dependency somewhere in its prerequisites tree. As far as the rest of it goes, I’m not sure where I’d start. Is this on your existing 2.3 server? Or on your 2.4 server? (I see you’ve got another message in about upgrades.)

Before doing that, I checked a working kickstart of ScientificLinux 6/7. There it is the same: The packages are downloaded partially at first. After that, they are downloaded and installed completly. Facing the problem, I have no idea, why the kickstart-profile wants to install vim. There is no configuration to do that. I will get the logs and provide them to you for analysis soon. kind regards, Philipp ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeffery Kalchik" < [email protected] > To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, November 14, 2015 7:13:26 PM Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] Kickstarting CentOS Whether or not the package is essential doesn’t matter. Any package in the configured channels or repositories should be usable. I’ve had issues where multiple packages exist that are named identically (different channels,) but compiled or built from different sources, leading to different checksums. My only workaround for this particular problem is to identify those package name collisions, and remove the packages that I do not want to use. Philipp, your issue looks a bit different. The error you’re getting seems like a network transmission issue. I’d be tempted to fire up wireshark (or some other network tracing app) to check traffic in/out of your Spacewalk server. It’d be interesting to see what differences exist in the network captures between the anaconda download and the wget.

I already googled and found this discussion: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.spacewalk.user/12920 I have got the same problems. During the kickstarting, anaconda tries to get the vim-package: 192.168.0.241 - - [12/Nov/2015:16:30:45 +0100] "GET /ks/dist/org/1/CentOS7-x86_64-dist/Packages/vim-common-7.4.160-1.el7.x86_64.rpm HTTP/1.1" 206 252040 "-" "urlgrabber/3.10 yum/3.4.3" If I do a wget to the same url (from the same host): 192.168.0.241 - - [12/Nov/2015:16:38:54 +0100] "GET /ks/dist/org/1/CentOS7-x86_64-dist/Packages/vim-common-7.4.160-1.el7.x86_64.rpm HTTP/1.1" 200 6211720 "-" "Wget/1.14 (linux-gnu)" In packaging.log I can see following errors: error populating transaction after 10 retries: failure: Packages/vim-common...rpm from anaconda: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. http://<URL>/Packages/vim-common...rpm: [Errno -1] Header is not complete. The solution mentioned above isnt working for me. Are there any other ideas? kind regards, Philipp This message may contain confidential material from Land O'Lakes, Inc.
