<div dir="ltr"><div><div>I am testing a Spacewalk 2.2 server with a connected proxy and three hosts connected via the proxy. I can successfully update packages both on the proxy and hosts connected though it. I have added my Spacewalk 2.2 server to itselff, using its DNS FQDN rather than localhost, however when I try to update packages for it I get the following error in /var/log/up2date: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: centos6-base-x86_64 </div>I have checked the httpd logs and can't spot a relevant error, what could be the problem?
