[Spacewalk-list] Error connecting to spacewalk for yum udpates

[Bentley, Dain]

Oh sorry, one more thing, I ran tcpdump on the firewall and noticed when i do a yum update request on the client, I see the spacewalk server making DNS requests to the internet, however I see nothing else occuring, for example I don't see the client going out on port 80/443 or whatever ports it needs and I don't see the spacewalk server making any other requests other than DNS requests.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Error connecting to spacewalk for yum udpates

Hello all, I followed the tutuorial (spacewalk-embded-postgres) on the wiki and sucessfully got spacewalk running.
I have added one node and I'm haing issues getting updates to work.

After I installed the spacewalk utils and ran repo sync I've updated the repos.  Next I installed the client packages on a node and successfully registered the node and spacewalk sees it just fine.

When I run yum update I see the following error:
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: centos6-x86_64. Please verify its path and try again

Now the hostname is configured for the spacewalk server, but I see the following in /var/log/httpd/acess_log:
 [25/Feb/2013:16:06:51 -0500] "POST /XMLRPC HTTP/1.1" 200 2403 "-" "rhn.rpclib.py/2.5.55-1.el6"
xx.xx.xx.xx - - [25/Feb/2013:16:06:51 -0500] "GET /XMLRPC/GET-REQ/centos6-x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml HTTP/1.1" 404 - "-" "rhn.rpclib.py/2.5.55-1.el6"

Funny thing is when I log into the web interface it shows updates need to be applied to the client node so I know something is working properly.

cat rhn_server_xmlrpc.log shows the client accessing the server:
2013/02/25 16:06:51 -04:00 22554 xx.xx.xx.xx: xmlrpc/up2date.login(1000010000,)



ANd I saw this in the taskomatic log but it's from last night when I rebooted the server:

Caused by: org.quartz.SchedulerConfigException: Failure occured during job recovery. [See nested exception: org.quartz.JobPersistenceException: Couldn't recover jobs: End time cannot be before start time [See nested exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: End time cannot be before start time]]

I also don't see a /var/cache/repodata directory.



Have I missed something?



This is a 1.8 install on Centos 6.3



Oh, iptables is turned off on both nodes.
