[Spacewalk-list] spacewalk-repo-sync gives "HTTPS Error 401 - Unauthorized" for ULN repository

[Nicole Beck]

Hi,
I'm trying to setup channels for Oracle Linux on my Spacewalk 2.7 server (running  CentOS 7), but the spacewalk-repo-sync is failing with the "unauthorized" error below.

[root at spacewalk rpm-gpg]# spacewalk-repo-sync --type uln --channel=ol6_x86_64_spacewalk26_client --url=uln:///ol6_x86_64_spacewalk26_client --verbose

I put my ULN username and password in /etc/rhn/spacewalk-repo-sync/uln.conf, and the permissions are 0400. I verified that the username and password are correct by copying and pasting from this file into the login for https://uln.oracle.com.  If I put the wrong password in uln.conf, I get the "Fault 60: Invalid username or password" error when running spacewalk-repo-sync, so I'm assuming the file is correct.

I tried stopping Spacewalk, removing the appropriate subdirectories in /var/cache/rhn/reposync/1/ and restarting Spacewalk, but this did not help.  Does anyone have suggestions? The directions at https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/blob/master/backend/README.ULN are pretty straightforward, but I'm obviously missing something.
Thanks.
