[Spacewalk-list] [SOLVED] Re: switching from local repository to spacewalk-based repository -- errors

[Andy Ingham]

[FINALLY SOLVED]

The problem was nothing more than having an EXCLUDE statement in
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf

Changing:

	[main]
	enabled = 1
	gpgcheck = 1
	exclude=*postgresql*


To:
	[main]
	enabled = 1
	gpgcheck = 1


And restarting rhnsd (for good measure) led to success.

FYI!

I've tried all of the things you mention as well as re-registering the
client to the spacewalk server, to no avail.

I suspect that my only option at this point is to completely uninstall
postgres via yum and then reinstall it via spacewalk.

Not exactly the smooth transition I'd been hoping for as the precedent for
my other postgres servers.

Thanks for the ideas!

Well, I have no idea what's the problem. I'd try:
- run yum clean all and yum update on the client to see whether it can
  see updates,
- also after scheduling updates you can also run rhn_check -vvv to see
  more detailed debug messages,
- check /var/cache/rhn/repodata/pgdg91/primary.xml.gz on server which
  version of postgresql91 is in,
and
- check last repo generation date in channel detail in webUI
- and maybe check taskomatic log.
