Yea this turned out to be a known issue with RHEL 5 isos. This will be resolved in the upcoming U releases. I documented a workaround here,

Lemme know if you have any issues,

The .treeinfo only resides in the root directory of the .iso and there is no repodata dir in the root dir. Conundrum...

There needs to be a .treeinfo file in the directory for us to be able to create a distribution. Usually it should be at the same level as where the repodata is.

If I point it to the Server directory that contains the repodata directory (rhel-server-5.7-x86_64-dvd.iso/Server/), then it does not create any trees and I do not get a distribution list that I can kickstart from. What am I missing?

Make sure your file path is pointing to the dir where repodata is found. Error indicates that there is no repodata dir under /var/tmp/rh5u7-base/ .

I've banged my head on this for a few days now and have thrown in the towel. From a rhel6 box running pulp 254-8 I'm getting the following error when attempting to sync a repo using the rhel5.7 iso or a folder that is a copy of the iso. I can sync it from the copy if I run a create repo from the base directory but run into a "Cannot retrieve metadata (repomd.xml)" error during the ks build.
pulp-admin repo create --id rh5u7-base --feed file:///var/tmp/rh5u7-base/ --arch x86_64
Error when attempting to sync:
error: RepoError: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: /tmp/temp_pulp_repoH3jzwl. Please verify its path and try again
