Hello everyone,
I've recently been working on adding my repo syncs to cron and have
seemingly run into a wall. For some reason, the script I call from
root's crontab to execute the repo sync fails nightly with "Cannot
retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: <repo>"
errors. However, the manual execution of that very same script works
without a single issue.
I can't seem to isolate it. It's root's crontab, so it can't be a
permissions issue. The script is just 4 spacewalk-repo-sync commands
in a row, nothing overly special. The execution time has been shifted
around to all different times of day. A secondary cron that runs
reposync for errata publishing doesn't have this issue.
Any thoughts? Does spacewalk-repo-sync require environmental
variables I'm missing or something?
Thank you for your time,
Jonathan
