[Spacewalk-list] Error code 32

[Soham Chakraborty]

Hi all,

I am trying to figure out whether anyone has seen this problem. After I
posted this thread, I had some discussion with Jan Hutar and although I
tried all the steps he suggested (which are below), I am still stuck with
this problem.

1) So far, I have tried to increase the memory
in /usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.conf file from 1024
to 3072 for the parameter wrapper.java.maxmemory. Restarted taskomatic.
Same problem.

2) I deleted /var/cache/repodata/rhn/<label-of-the-channel> and regenerated
metadata again. Same problem.

3) yum-rhn-plugin is updated in both server and client.

4) Ran 'yum clean all' and tried to schedule update from the server. Same
problem.

>From the /var/log/up2date file of the client, I see this:

up2date successfully retrieved authentication token from up2date server
up2date E: Package samba4-libs-0:4.2.10-12.el6_9.x86_64 is not available
for installation
up2date updateLoginInfo() login info
up2date logging into up2date server
up2date successfully retrieved authentication token from up2date server
up2date E: Package samba4-libs-0:4.2.10-12.el6_9.x86_64 is not available
for installation

But the packages are present on the spacewalk server.

# ll
/spacewalk/redhat/1/fdb/samba4-libs/0:4.2.10-12.el6_9/x86_64/fdbbc812af803aa8a715ae23398ac177b64de178a56d1d6750f41a6730de787c/samba4-libs-4.2.10-12.el6_9.x86_64.rpm
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4567480 Nov 29 02:20
/spacewalk/redhat/1/fdb/samba4-libs/0:4.2.10-12.el6_9/x86_64/fdbbc812af803aa8a715ae23398ac177b64de178a56d1d6750f41a6730de787c/samba4-libs-4.2.10-12.el6_9.x86_64.rpm

The sha256sum matches as well.

The spacewalk-schema is spacewalk-schema-2.6.17-1.el7.noarch. Do I need to
update the schema as advised in https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1263213?

What could be wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.

@Michael, do you reckon this could be any way related to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1421674? Not as an end result
but rather as a symptom?

Thanks,
