[Spacewalk-list] [CLOSED+SOLUTION] Sles Patchlvl 4 Spacewalk-Service fail

[Bosch, Fabian (BITBW)]

EXACTLY! THANKS.

This did the trick: (remember: I am on a SLES SP4 Client-System)

Rename functions in /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/rhn/connections.py

line 241
def idn_pune_to_unicode(hostname):
to
def idn_puny_to_unicode(hostname):

line 248
def idn_ascii_to_pune(hostname):
to
def idn_ascii_to_puny(hostname):

And make sure, that the Up2date config under /usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/config.py
imports and uses the new name.

Make a search & replace

idn_pune_to_unicode
to
idn_puny_to_unicode

idn_ascii_to_pune
to
idn_ascii_to_puny

so that the up2date references the right function.

last step:
renew/review your information in the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date


worked for me.

Thanks to all


Freundliche Grüße

Hi @ all

I recently upgraded SLES to newly released Patchlevel 4. The System has been registered an working unter Patchlevel 3 with Spacewalk v2.3.
The Upgrade via Spacewalk/zypper worked fine, but after Dist-Upgrade spacewalk-service stopped working and is now skipped.
The only message I got was that I have to install spacewalk-backend-libs. No Information about the required Version – spacewalk-backend-libs needs python(abi)=2.7.
Never heared neither have such a package.

Anyone has experience with SLES SP4 and Spacewalk? Are there additional packages needed providing python(abi) or are there client-tools for Patchlevel 4 in the tube?

Software installed:
rhn-client-tools 2.3.16-3.1
Rhnsd 5.0.15-3.1
Rhnlib-2.5.75-2.1
Zypp-plugin-spacewalk-0.9.9-3.1


Just for your Information:
Why SLES ?? – It wasn't my Choice ☺ And now I want to demonstrate that there is no need for SUSE Manager – a proprietary Patchmanagement based on Spacewalk.
