My correction is run the following on your client.. /usr/sbin/osad -N -v -v -v.. also check to ensure your repo is correct by running the following on your client.. yum --verbose repolist. However.. taskomatic should be running on spacewalk in order for the metadata to be generated. </DIV> <DIV aria-label="Compose body"> </DIV> <DIV aria-label="Compose body">mike miller</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <HR id=zwchr> <DIV style="FONT-STYLE: normal; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; COLOR: #000; FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-WEIGHT: normal; TEXT-DECORATION: none" data-mce-style="color: #000; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">From: "Dimitri Yioulos" <dyioulos@onpointfc.com> To: spacewalk-list@redhat.com Sent: Friday, November 22, 2013 8:31:47 AM Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk 2.0 unable to update clients <DIV> </DIV>Previous posts may well be correct but, in my experience at least, the following from your log: <DIV> </DIV>Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: epel_ol6.4_x86_64.
