[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk metadata not transfered to client

Hello,

I invite your assistance on this problem. I do not want to open a redhat
ticket on Spacewalk.
I hope that is this the right forum ?

We are using Spacewalk to monitor some of our systems.
Actually, there are Exclamation mark in front of repository names on Client.
After clean cache on the client (yum clean all), "yum" cannot retrieve
metadata from the SpaceWalk Server.
Client system shows 0 packages in base channel.

 I tried this documentation (https://access.redhat.com/solutions/19303) but
it doesn't work.
After "yum check-update" command, I have the following error message

Client system always shows 0 packages in base channel (Previously, I forced
regeneration process after restart taskomatic service).

I tried out ideas :
- On the client system : yum clean all; rm -rf /var/cache/yum/*;
rhn-profile-sync; yum update
- On the server SpaceWalk : spacewalk-service stop; rm -rf
/var/cache/rhn/reposync/*; rm -rf /var/cache/rhn/repodata/*; rm -rf
/var/cache/rhn/satsync/*; spacewalk-service start
- On the server SpaceWalk : Regenerate repo data for all channels :
spacecmd softwarechannel_list; for i in spacecmd softwarechannel_list; do
spacecmd softwarechannel_regenerateyumcache $i; done
- Add a new client

For information, I noticed that a taskomatic service no regenerate repodata
after restart service. I am bound to force repodata regeneration.
In /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log, I have the following message :

Have you got an idea of this behavior ?

Thanks a lot
