[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk - remote command option - rhncfg-actions RPM not found

[Dave Thoms]

Ok – so according to the document:

1.

     *   RHEL 7 / SL 7 / CentOS 7
o   # rpm -Uvh https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@spacewalkproject/spacewalk-2.8-client/epel-7-x86_64/00742644-spacewalk-repo/spacewalk-client-repo-2.8-11.el7.centos.noarch.rpm
o   # rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm

  1.  Install client packages
# yum -y install rhn-client-tools rhn-check rhn-setup rhnsd m2crypto yum-rhn-plugin


I have setup both repos (verified again) and installed the rhn* files in step 2 above (also verified their installation again).

[root at dev yum.repos.d]# yum search rhn

  Name and summary matches only, use "search all" for everything.


As you can see rhncfg-actions is not listed.  Is spacewalk possibly in error telling me I need rhncfg-actions? Possibly outdated?

Hello,

the rhncfg* RPMs come from Spacewalk client repositories, do you have them enabled?
If not, follow step one, depending on your os of this HowTo: https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/wiki/RegisteringClients

All,


I recently just installed Spacewalk 2.8 in Centos 7.  In the web GUI if you go to Systems and then Remote Command I get the message:
Remote Command on dev.local.com<http://dev.local.com>
You must enable Remote Command execution on the target system by installing the rhncfg-actions RPM.


I have looked high and low for the rhncfg-actions RPM.  I have the EPEL repository set up along with the Centos repository – I’ve used Yum whatprovies and Yum search.  Still I cannot find it.  I also went to another machine (one not subscribed to my spacewalk installation) that also has the EPEL repo setup and I can’t find it there either.  I’d really like to get remote commands working – does AnyOne know why rhncfg-actions seems to have disappeared?  Possibly owned by Redhat and there copyright issues which caused it’s removal?




Help,
