Hello

Please could you change if you are hitting:

Hi, Jan.

Sorry, I don't understand what you're asking me to do.  Have I hit a
bug?  A fix in the works?  A work-around?  Because, right now, I have
a non-working Spacewalk.

Dimitri

I'm sorry, I have wrote "Please could you change if you are hitting:" but meant 
"Please could you check if you are hitting:". If I understood you correctly, you have 
issues with updating your clients right? You might be hitting linked bug.

Is your "non-working Spacewalk" a different issue?

Please keep me in CC.

Regards,
Jan

Jan,

I appear to be hitting at least a similar bug.  When I run "rhn_check -vv, I 
get a slightly different result:

I've noted the line of interest.

From the Spacewalk UI:

Details: This action will be executed after 2/11/16 9:11:00 AM EST
This action's status is: Completed.
The client picked up this action on 2/11/16 9:57 AM
The client completed this action on 2/11/16 9:58 AM
Client execution returned "Requested packages already installed" (code 0)          
 <--------- SAME AS REPORTED IN BUG

Packages Scheduled:
tzdata-2016a-1.el5.x86_64

Of course, a previous version of tzdata is installed on this machine.

Is our Spacewalk database out-of-whack?  I must confess that I run this script 
to clean up obsolete packages: 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2012-August/msg00249.html  Might 
that be the cause?  If so, how do I remediate?

Dimitri

Hello,
I'm not sure if the outputs you have sent matches. According to
timestampt in `rhn_check -vv` output, it was executed at 09:07:36, but
text you have copy&pasted from Spacewalk webUI says 9:57.

Cold you please try with osad stopped?:

 1. client# service osad stop
 2. on Spacewalk schedule package upgrade
 3. client# rhn_check -vv

And if output seems reasonable similar to whats in refferenced bug,
try with change from:

 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1302198#c1

 1. client# service osad stop
 2. on Spacewalk schedule package upgrade
 3. client# cp /usr/share/rhn/actions/packages.py{,.ORIG}
 4. client# vim /usr/share/rhn/actions/packages.py   # add these 3
              lines, make sure to preserve indentation
 5. client# rhn_check -vv
 6. client# cp /usr/share/rhn/actions/packages.py{.ORIG,}

Also please provide info about currently installed tzdata package:

 client# rpm -q tzdata --qf "%{NAME}-%{EPOCH}:%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n"

and package you are trying to update to:

 spacewalk# rpm -qp /where/is/tzdata-...rpm --qf
 "%{NAME}-%{EPOCH}:%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n"

Thank you in advance,
Jan
