[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk syncing against wrong repository

Mon Aug 7 18:59:03 UTC 2017

Ok, I am including the log excerpt so that you guys can see that I'm not 
crazy.   I created an entirely new channel, and a new repository.....with a 
completely fictitious URL.  And it happily synced to another repo, on another 
system.  The only reason I know it's going out to my rhel 6 repo, is the 
package numbers match, and it's pulling in EL6 rpms.

The URL in the logs is completely bogus!!!!!  That is the URL configured in the 
repo set up screen, and the only repo that the rhel_7_os_repo is configured to 
use.
