[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk clients reporting zero packages in channels

Spacewalkers,



I am in dire need of some assistance with this issue.



I have tested against freshly built Spacewalk 2.8 and Spacewalk 2.7 systems
and the results are the same.

The base OS is always Centos 6.9 fully patched.

I believe I have a misconfiguration somewhere but I’m just not finding it.



Problem:

When I register a client to either SW2.7 or SW2.8 the repos show up without
any packages.  In both cases the SW server shows the channels are fully
populated and the repos cache status = completed.  The channel, e.g.
atlas-centos6-x86_64, is a clone from the master centos6-x86_64 channel;
created using spacecmd softwarechannel_clonetree –s centos6-x86_64 –p
“atlas-“ –g



[root at kfr-fpr-hc-d01 yum.repos.d]# yum repolist

atlas-spacewalk27-client-centos6-x86_64       atlas-Spacewalk Client 2.7
for CentOS 6 (x86_64)   0



When I point this same server to the existing SW2.2 system I get this:

This problem is a huge issue which is preventing us from moving forward.
Any and all suggestions are very welcome.  Thank you,
