When I run "spacewalk-repo-sync --channel=rhel-6-server-rpms", I get the error: ERROR: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: content_dist_rhel_server_6_$releasever_$basearch_os. Please verify its path and try again What creates the content in "/var/cache/rhn/reposync/content_dist_rhel_server_6_$releasever_$basearch_os"? All of the other channels that I created all have "cachecookie, packages, primary.xml.gz, primary.xml.gz.sqlite, repomd.xml and updateinfo.xml.gz". There must be a process that creates this content, but what, I'm not sure. How can I manually create this content?

Poking around on Red Hat I found a doc that suggested that I look at the name in /etc/sysconfig/network and ensure that the hostname is FQDN and then run "spacewalk-hostname-rename". Host name was not FQDN, so I renamed it, but because I use a signed cert, will running spacewalk-hostname-rename cause a problem with that cert?

As a matter of fact, I just now re-registered to make sure that all is good. I can see from the command line subscription manager that the server is subscribed, and I confirmed that it is entitled. I use a "signed" cert so I'm wondering if the signed cert has something to do with this? However, I found a troubleshooting document on Red Hat that verifies that I am entitled and using the certificate provided by Red Hat to communicate back to them.

But I also don't know, how you could "manually" connect to the repo (with username/password or token inline in URL). Is your server listed as entitled within your RedHat account? ________________________________ Von: Daryl Rose<mailto:[email protected]> Gesendet: 06.12.2016 17:26 An: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Betreff: Re: [Spacewalk-list] RHEL 6.x repository not syncing from parentchannel I decided to try the sync from the command line. This time I received an error: ERROR: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: content_dist_rhel_server_6_6Server_x86_64_os_. Please verify its path and try again The path came out of the redhat.repo file that came from Red Hat when I registered the server. Its the same path that was used on the previous server. Any suggestions? Thank you.

I looked at the sync logs and it doesn't appear that anything is syncing at all from the RHEL channel. I just recently migrated to a physical server. I successfully registered the server and attached an entitlement to the server. If I run "yum update" on the server, it lists latest updates from the RHEL channel. This is what I see in the reposync log: 2016/12/05 14:49:42 -05:00 Command: ['/usr/bin/spacewalk-repo-sync', '--channel', 'rhel-6-server-rpms', '--type', 'yum'] 2016/12/05 14:49:42 -05:00 Sync of channel started. 2016/12/05 14:49:42 -05:00 Repo URL: https:<rhel 6 rpm channel> 2016/12/05 14:49:42 -05:00 Sync of channel completed in 0:00:00. If I haven't received any syncs since August, then this broke long before I migrated to the physical server. Any thoughts? Daryl
