[Spacewalk-list] Interesting OSAD Problem

Also the osad package… I think is only available in the child channel (network-tools) If you don’t have that child channel available on the key, it wont pull the package down from spacewalk ☺

Did you add the child-channel to your activation key?

ATH,

I have tried what you suggested and yet still getting the same error but unfortunately the clients I kickstarted from the SW server does not have osad service installed and there's no way to installed them since the packages are not showing unless alternatively I copy the package from SW server and then use rpm to install it.

yum repolist  (KEYword here is REPO, not packages) will not list packages but will list your repos which are in /etc/yum.repos.d

First, remove all the default repos on all SW clients that came when you did the installation. You do not need this again. You need the repos that belong to the software channels your system is registered to on your SW server. Do the following

Try to remove yum cache on each client and then make a new cache:
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
mkdir /old
mv * /old     # This moves all the default repos into the old directory

rm -rf /var/cache/yum   # This removes yum cache
yum clean all
yum makecache           # This makes a new cache
yum update                  # rhn-check -vvvv will only work if the repos of your software channels are on each client

If it doesn't work, unregister each client and then re-register them again:

rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=https://IP or FQDN/XMLRPC --activationkey=1-a81b573814336d70a007c39f6f2b7f3  --force


FOR OSAD:
Did you do the following on each client:
rpm -Uvh  https://ip or fqdn of SW server/pub/RHN-ORG-TRUSTED-SSL-CERT<https://spacewalker1.waselinux.net/pub/RHN-ORG-TRUSTED-SSL-CERT>
yum install osad
vim  /etc/sysconfig/rhn/osad.conf

change the line starting with osa_ssl_cert to:

osa_ssl_cert = /usr/share/rhn/RHN-ORG-TRUSTED-SSL-CERT



Oh yes, you can make today a great day! Thanks.

Very Respectfully,
A. C. Kebei

Always, Very Committed to Excellence and the fair treatment of all.

There's many issues that could cause this(not necessarily this bug),
have you checked the relevant logs?

If you run the command:   rhn_check -vvv on the client machine, does it
receive the packages?

AFAIK, thats what 'yum repolist' is meant to do.
