[Spacewalk-list] No Kickstartable Channels/Tree found.

Thu Feb 12 21:32:21 UTC 2015

Did you ever get anywhere with this? I’m trying to setup kickstart for SLES in an ESX environment, and I’m seeing the same error "Base Channel*:
No Kickstartable Channels found."

I chose suse as the distro. I read a guide and I think I need to do it manually, using cobbler. I'm still a bit vague on how it works though.

Here's the link to the guide:
http://fluxcoil.net/doku.php/cobbler/sles

Upon following the guide I have an active kicstart profile created (but of course it can't be managed by spacewalk).

Thanks.

What options are set in the dirsto :)? It could be that you have Installer Generation set to something other then suse?

Suggests also that you cannot wizard the creation of them, you need to upload an autoyast (wassat?), so it could be that, not familiar with suse though im afraid

Maybe

But if you click in Systems - Kickstart - Profile - create a new kickstart profile

Can you send to us the print screen ?!

That's what I've been trying to do.

Oh my, just had a chat with my colleague. I'm not familiar with Red Hat and I rarely play with CentOS, so I didn't know that Kickstart is actually a feature to automate installation in Red Hat. No wonder it failed since I'm trying to create a kickstart for suse *facepalm*. I supposed I need to look into autoyast instead?

Thanks for the help,

Well there's a green 'tick' under the 'Valid?*' column, so I guess the it's alright. Plus the distributions won't get created if the details aren't valid, no?

Here's a screenshot.

Thanks.

Hi,

Recently I installed Spacewalk on a virtual CentOS 6.5. The installation went smooth. I followed the following guides to setup software channels, distribution and kickstart:

http://www.sysadminwiki.net/site/doku.php/services/spacewalk/server_configuration
http://www.sysadminwiki.net/site/doku.php/services/spacewalk/distribution_configuration

I failed to create a kickstart profile due to not having a Kickstartable channels and Kickstartable tree. I have created a Kickstartable distributions and it was successful. I do have a valid base channel as well as tree path. I'm stumped.

What did I miss? Please advise.

Thanks.
