Larry,

 

Does anything stick out in rhn_taskomatic.log? I recommend bouncing the 
taskomatic service and watching this file for a little while.

zero packages in channels

 

Thank you for the suggestions.  I had tried that earlier but did so again just 
now.  It made no difference.

 

The atlas-centos6 channels are all clones from the master centos6 channels.  I 
created an activation key for these master channels (we normally do not 
subscribe systems to the masters).  I then updated my test client to use this 
new activation key be subscribed directly to the masters – same results.  Zero 
packages listed.

 

In the SW GUI I see the newly registered system.  It shows that it has updates 
available to it.  Yet the client system sees zero packages:

Faced that issue before and its fixed by stopping the spacewalk services then  
delete data under /var/cache/rhn/reposync/* then start back the spacewalk , it 
should work with you.

 

"spacewalk-service stop ; rm -rf /var/cache/rhn/reposync/* ; spacewalk-service 
start"

 

If the above didn’t work delete everything under /var/cache/rhn/* after stoping 
the spacewalk services then start the spacewalk and resync the channels it must 
work with you.

 

"spacewalk-service stop ; rm -rf /var/cache/rhn/* ; spacewalk-service start; 
spacewalk-repo-sync -c atlas-centos6-x86_64  -c atlas-centos6-x86_64-updates  
-c atlas-epel6-centos6-x86_64 -c atlas-spacewalk27-client-centos6-x86_64 -t yum 
"

 

*The above will not delete the packages 

 

Please share if that fixed your issue.

Spacewalkers,

 

 

 

I am in dire need of some assistance with this issue.

 

 

 

I have tested against freshly built Spacewalk 2.8 and Spacewalk 2.7 systems and 
the results are the same.

 

The base OS is always Centos 6.9 fully patched.

 

I believe I have a misconfiguration somewhere but I?m just not finding it.

 

 

 

Problem:

 

When I register a client to either SW2.7 or SW2.8 the repos show up without any 
packages.  In both cases the SW server shows the channels are fully populated 
and the repos cache status = completed.  The channel, e.g.

atlas-centos6-x86_64, is a clone from the master centos6-x86_64 channel; 
created using spacecmd softwarechannel_clonetree ?s centos6-x86_64 ?p ?atlas-? 
?g

atlas-spacewalk27-client-centos6-x86_64       atlas-Spacewalk Client 2.7

for CentOS 6 (x86_64)   0

 

 

 

When I point this same server to the existing SW2.2 system I get this:

atlas-spacewalk-centos6

atlas-spacewalk-centos6                  169

 

 

 

This problem is a huge issue which is preventing us from moving forward.

Any and all suggestions are very welcome.  Thank you,
