Hello,
I have CCed Spacewalk list as this is IMO usual problem.

Please make sure your Spacewalk have repodata generated:

# ls /var/cache/rhn/repodata/<you_channel_label>

and in webUI:

Channels -> Software Channels -> <your_channel> -> "Last Repo
  Build:" and "Repo Cache Status:"

If you do not have that up2date, make sure you have taskomatic
running - in webUI:

Admin -> Task Engine Status -> first row there should have "ON"

If it is not, restart your Spacewalk:

# rhn-satellite restart

Now you can watch Taskomatic log to make sure it starts to
regenerate repodata:

# tail -f /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log

Once these are generated, you should not have problems when
installing packages from these channels.

Hope this helps,
Jan
