[Spacewalk-list] how do I clear spacewalk's repo-sync cache?

[Boyd, Robert]

Andy or anyone,

What did you do to clear the problem?  Did it clear up by virtue the stale mirror(s) eventually catching up?  Or did you change the URL you were using for the repository?

I found I had the same problem today and changed the URL to point to dl.fedora.org instead of download.fedora.org and got it to work.   I'm sure in the long run it would be better to switch it back to the one that points to the mirrors.

That appears to have been the issue.

Many thanks!

Is it possible you use a caching HTTP proxy (possibly a transparent
one) that gives you the stale data?

If you do

	GET 'http://archive.linux.duke.edu/pub/epel/6/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml'
| grep primary.sqlite

do you see the correct content?
