[Spacewalk-list] Error when creating kickstart tree

Justin,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

Yes. /var/satellite existed as I created it to run rhnpush as per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451721

The rpm's exist but not in /var/satellite/redhat/.

/var/satellite/redhat/1/yum-skip-broken/1.1.10-9.el5.centos/noarch

 is where I found yum-skip-broken-1.1.10-9.el5.centos.noarch.rpm

I should also note that the list of "Not Found" rpms isn't just what was included below. It was virtually all rpms but I didn't count them to get the exact number.

Thanks again

Anoop

Hi Anoop,

Do you know if /var/satellite existed before you ran the 'mkdir -p' command?


As for your other error,
/var/satellite/rhn/kickstart/ks-centos51-u1/CentOS should not contain
any rpms.  All of those are pulled from their locations in
/var/satellite/redhat/.

Not found: /media/CentOS/yum-tsflags-1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2.noarch.rpm
Not found: /media/CentOS/yum-updateonboot-1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2.noarch.rpm
Not found: /media/CentOS/yum-updatesd-3.0.5-1.el5.centos.5.noarch.rpm
Not found: /media/CentOS/yum-utils-1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2.noarch.rpm
Not found: /media/CentOS/yum-versionlock-1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2.noarch.rpm



Are those packages contained within your CentOs 5.1 channel?  If they
are not, push them to that channel and run the make-ks-tree command again.
