I found the problem; I was using a 6.6 Packages directory but forgot to update images/isolinux/repodata to 6.6 .

I’m currently setting up a kickstart environment to install RHEL-based Linux machines. We are connecting from client to server using a static IP. The kickstart connects to server and initializes OK, but then fails with the message during the beginning of installation: “The file iputils-20071127-16.el6.x86_64.rpm cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media.” From the server side, there is a 404 error. I investigated, and it looks like my Spacewalk server has iputils-20071127-17.el6.x86_64.rpm (version 17), but kickstart is trying to push iputils-20071127-16.el6.x86_64.rpm (version 16). If I manually download the v17 RPM and copy it to /var/distro-trees/scientific6-x86_64/Packages, then the package installs during the kickstart boot and the next packages fails. I can’t figure out why Spacewalk is pushing the old version of every package. I have: 1. Verified that the “scientific6-x86_64” software channel is up-to-date (synced 12/22 11PM) 2. Downloaded latest SL6.6 ISO and extracted directories to /var/distro-trees/scientific6-x86_64 : a. images b. isolinux c. Packages d. repodata 3. Created a “scientific6-x86_64” distribution through the Spacewalk WebApp 4. Created a “scientific6-x86_64” kickstart profile, using the “scientific6-x86_64” software channel I’ve tried selecting “Ignore missing packages” in the kickstart profile, but the same error appears. How can I tell Spacewalk to look for the newer (current) versions of all packages?
