[Spacewalk-list] Repo-Sync not working on 1.5 (PostgreSQL)

[Pierre Casenove]

Hello,
I had this problem also. In fact, in the proxy url of rhn.conf, make sure
you have removed the "http://". You just put the host and the port of the
proxy.
yum.conf accept proxy url with http, but not spacewalk

Hope this helps

Pierre
