[Spacewalk-list] CentOS 6 Related Kickstart Problem in Spacewalk

[Trevor T Kates]

Hi,

My attempts to solve this problem solo have been met with much frustration. I am attempting to kickstart a CentOS 6.3 system via pxeboot, cobbler and Spacewalk. I have an activation key set up to load several configuration files upon registration which is also supposed to install relevant rhn packages. An error occurs when attempting to install libxml2-python because the version of this package that the kickstart is attempting to install originates from the CentOS 6 updates repo channel; however, the dependency for this package which is also in the CentOS 6 updates repo channel is unavailable because the repo is not enabled in the kickstart. If I enable the repo in the kickstart, the install will not complete and produces an install.log file full of errors like the following:

Installing postfix-2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64
warning: %post(postfix-2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 127

I’m at a loss at the moment for how to properly fix this problem as all of my searches have turned up no viable solutions. Any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks,
