<P><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I'm new to this list (and to Spacewalk in general) and hope you might be able to help me:<BR>
<BR>
I recently installed Spacewalk 1.7 using the OracleXE Backend on RHEL6.2, and created </FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">a local repository / channel and assigned it to a test client (which registers successful, also rhel 6.2)</FONT></SPAN>
</P>
<P><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Spacewalk sees the necessary updates for the client, but if I schedule them (or only one package for testing),</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">as soon as I run rhn_check (-v/vv/vvv) on the client, it fails with the error:<BR>
</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial">Client execution returned "Error while executing packages action: empty transaction [[6]]" (code -1) </FONT></SPAN>
</P>
<P><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT FACE="Arial">this is also the only line in the output of rhn_check -vvv that looks bad to my unknowing eyes:<BR>
</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT FACE="Arial">I know there has been a bug in yum-rhn-plugin which has been talked about in September, but that affected</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT FACE="Arial">5.7 and the versions don't seem to be similar at all, so I presume this is another problem with the configuration</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="de"><FONT FACE="Arial">on my end - I would be happy about a nudge in the right direction where to troubleshoot this problem.</FONT> </SPAN>
