<div dir="ltr">I'm mirroring both EPEL and Spacewalk client repositories in Spacewalk, as I don't give my clients internet access in my lab, only the Spacewalk server. Another client which has the same configuration is working without any repos defined in /etc/yum.repos.d/, which leads me to believe it is a client side issue. </div>

</div><div>of course this will depends on what version or OS you are running. Also you want to run setenforce 0, this will disable selinux temporarily. All in all you should have file in you yum.repos.d dir. <br></div><hr>
