[Spacewalk-list] error with spacewalk-repo-sync

[Marco Giunta]

Hi at all,
I 've a strange problem with spacewalk-repo-sync; when I try to sync a 
repository with a lot of new rpms (20-30 or like today 1100) to a 
channel, I receive the errors below (it's only a part of errors):

If I try to sync again, the error messages vanish ... Is it only a 
problem on my server, or someone has the same issue ??

In the past I've used to sync with 'rhnpush', without any problems, but 
it was very slow ...
