<div>Hi Cipher,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>now it's working. The reason, the spacewalk packages have been removed is, because i forced the installation of rhn-client-tools although dependencies were not met. New version of rhn-client-tools depends on "python:any" which is not yet provided by anything. So the next time a package was installed, apt automatically "fixed" the problem.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Reinstalled all spacewalk packages from debian wheezy (the old ones ;-) ), made sure, the directories /var/lib/up2date and /var/spool/rhn/remote-script are in place and everything seems good now.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But I would like to know, what prevented the client to "find" the scheduled action. Must be somewhere in the DB.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks for your help :-)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards,</div>
<div>Robert</div>

<div>hm. I suggest updating the rhn-client-tools to latest version. The Debian and Ubuntu repos are really slow getting new versions and some packages are missing entirely. Read here how to build the package yourself <a href="http://www.devops-blog.net/spacewalk/registering-ubuntu-and-debian-servers-with-spacewalk" target="_blank">http://www.devops-blog.net/spacewalk/registering-ubuntu-and-debian-servers-with-spacewalk</a><br>
</div>
Besides that, what helped me getting this to work: Schedule an action like remote execution and then do rhn_check -vv on the client. Thats also how I found the directory was missing where it puts temp stuff.</div>

<br>
just checked... the directory is there.<br>
<br>
It looks like, the client does not find any action to perform.<br>
