[Spacewalk-list] cobbler-setup yaml error

[Josh Fiske]

It would appear that I have found the solve my own problem...  So I'll
throw this out there in case anyone runs across the same thing that I
did.  Apparently some changes need to be made to the cobbler-setup
script to make it play nicely.  Details here:

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] cobbler-setup yaml error

 

Hi folks,

 

I'm going through the effort of setting up my first spacewalk server and
I've run into a snag.  I have been using the "step-by-step" instructions
posted over on the CentOS wiki[1].  (I'm installing on Centos 5.)  I've
made it as far as running 'LANG=C; spacewalk-setup -disconnected' and it
makes it almost to the end when it errors like this:

 

* Deploying configuration files.

* Update configuration in database.

* Setting up Cobbler..

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/cobbler-setup", line 2, in ?

    from cobbler.yaml import loadFile

ImportError: No module named yaml

 

I've verified that yaml and python both appear to be installed:

 

rpm -qa | grep -i yaml

libyaml-0.1.2-3.el5

PyYAML-3.08-4.el5

 

rpm -qa | grep -i python

dbus-python-0.70-7.el5

python-elementtree-1.2.6-5

python-2.4.3-24.el5

libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.7

audit-libs-python-1.7.7-6.el5

gamin-python-0.1.7-8.el5

python-cheetah-2.0.1-1.el5

mod_python-3.2.8-3.1

python-gzipstream-1.4.0-16.el5

python-netaddr-0.5.2-1.el5

python-sqlite-1.1.7-1.2.1

python-devel-2.4.3-24.el5

python-simplejson-2.0.3-2.el5

libselinux-python-1.33.4-5.1.el5

python-iniparse-0.2.3-4.el5

rpm-python-4.4.2.3-9.el5

python-urlgrabber-3.1.0-5.el5

 

Any ideas on what I might be missing or how to get past this step?  (I'm
not much of a python guru, so debugging what looks like a simple error
with cobbler-setup has me stymied.)  Thanks!

 

Josh
