[Spacewalk-list] Cancel a running event

[Trevor T Kates (Services - 6)]

I ran into a similar problem earlier and fixed it by generating a
reactivation key and running rhnreg_ks –-activationkey=<key> --force.

The picked up events were all cancelled as I needed.

Try removing system in interface and re-register.

Tried that: didn't change anything. Also running rhn_check doesn't
change anything, I get this from the verbose output:

But still the action stays "running" in spacewalk.
