[Spacewalk-list] Issues with Scientific Linux 6.4

Tue May 28 13:17:22 UTC 2013

the yum clean all was the first thing i tried

interestingly i did find an error in the taskomatic logs the error itself
is a little puzzling
this happens over and over again but only on scientific Linux channels

I updated my test instance to spacewalk 1.9 and it seems to have fixed it
but a new error appears in the reposync log

"
Linking packages to channel.
Repo http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6.4/x86_64/os/ has
comps file comps-sl6-x86_64.xml.gz.
ERROR: Not a gzipped file
Sync completed.
Total time: 1:46:18

"

Note: I'm still seeing this on my production instance which is still
running 1.9 .
Also to fix it i had to completely remove all the packages from the
channels effected and resync them but I didn't need to delete the packages
from the system just from the channels.
