[Spacewalk-list] Taskomatic runs indefinitely without ever generating repodata

What I have noticed, if you use "spacecmd softchannel_generateyumcache <channel name>" and then go to tasks and run single repodata bunch, you will see it will actually start and generate your channel cache for you on the channel you used the spacecmd on, this works every time.
But yes the task logs just show repodata bunch running forever.

After letting the upgraded server sit for a while it seems only a few of
the task schedules actually finish. By now, only those tasks show up in
in the task engine status page:
Changelog Cleanup: 2018-07-01 23:00:00 CEST FINISHED
Clean Log History: 2018-07-01 23:00:00 CEST FINISHED
Compare Config Files: 2018-07-01 23:00:00 CEST FINISHED
Daily Summary Mail: 2018-07-01 23:00:00 CEST FINISHED
Daily Summary Queue: 2018-07-01 23:00:00 CEST FINISHED
All the other tasks have disappeared from the list by now.
The repo-sync tasks seem to work. New packages appear in the channel.
However, the repo build is not running or better it seems to never
properly finish.
If I start it manually, it seems to do its work:

yet, the task remains in RUNNING. And for whatever reason it only seems
to work some channels. I find a total of 20 repos syncing in the logs of
the updated server compared to 42 repos syncing in the logs of the old.
I don't really see the difference between those 20 repos syncing and
those other 22 not. First I suspected channels with custom quartz
schedules, but then I found channels in both groups.
So I don't know how to troubleshoot this any further. The repodata task
which I have started 1,5 hours ago is still at "RUNNING". The channels
for which the sync works have been updated. I don't know why it is still
running. Server load is back down...
Thanks,
Gerald
