[Spacewalk-list] Stuck "In Progress" tasks in System Set Manager

[Gerald Vogt]

I have the exact same problem: after our upgrade to 2.1, the first
channel subscription update I did through SSM is hanging. The second
update for other systems worked immediatly and even the SSM update for
the same systems worked fine in a second attempt.

So now this task is hanging there and there doesn't seem to be a way to
cancel it...

What now?

Thanks,

Gerald
