Re: Re: Puppet migration
by Rob Verduijn
Hi have you managed to log in to the foreman page in katello yet ?
I think you are supposed to use the login on the page you mentioned
since it says so in the official redhat documentation here:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/6.0/...
I've run into exactly the same problem, I've been hitting walls with
katello and taking them down slowly now. But I haven't managed to deal
with this one
After installing katello-all and katello-configure-foreman
then running katello-configure --user-pass=admin
I admit it's on the unsupported centos6, but that at least works with
a clean install, katello on fedora 18 clean install doesn't work at
all.
I've set up an example.com domain for testing katello.
I can access the page with admin admin
https://katello.example.com/katello
but this one keeps rejecting my credentials
https://katello.example.com/foreman

Sync with upstream Spacewalk?
by Brian Kosick
Hi All,
I've searched the list archives and read the wiki, I may have just missed
the answer to my question. I have an upstream provider that is using
spacewalk to distribute channels. Is there a way to get katello to sync
with upstream spacewalk servers? Or do I have to use mrepo?
Thanks

Re: ketallo/pulp repo question
by David
I believe you have to check the "Publish as http" when you create the repo initially.
I haven't been able to find a way to modify a repo once it's been created, though.

Katello with rhel5 consumers issue with a documented workaround
by David
Howdy again, everyone! I've been battling setting up a Katello (via nightlies, granted) server on rhel 6.4 with the purpose
of managing a bunch of rhel 5.6 clients for the past week. According to the docs, this shouldn't be an issue out of the box.
One of the main issues I've ran into is the has that rhel 6.4 (and Katello, by default) uses in generating
it's repos is sha256. This is something that rhel 5.x does not support natively (only sha1). 'createrepo' shipped with Katello
*does* have the option to generate the hash's with sha1, however, using the '-s hashtype' arg.
I'm hoping to be able to put in a bug report this week documenting this, with the request being an option to specify the hash
you want to use when generating a repo.
In the meantime, I've documented what needs to be done to work around this issue. Please bear in mind my rhel5 consumers do *not* have internet access, so everything had to be setup somewhere on my local lan. I just used my Katello server. Anyway, here it is and hopefully it's good enough and accurate enough to be added to the official Documentation:
----------
1) On your Katello server (or wherever) create a rhel5 friendly repo (I used /var/www/html/pub/rhsm):
- Add the following rpm's from http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/candlepin/subscription-manager/epel-s...
subscription-manager-1.0.12-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
subscription-manager-debuginfo-1.0.12-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
subscription-manager-firstboot-1.0.12-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
subscription-manager-gui-1.0.12-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
subscription-manager-migration-1.0.12-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
python-rhsm-1.10.1-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
python-rhsm-1.9.1-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
python-rhsm-debuginfo-1.10.1-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
python-rhsm-debuginfo-1.9.1-1.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
virt-what-1.11-2.el5.x86_64.rpm
- Add the below rpm from http://skvidal.fedorapeople.org/hashlib/
python-hashlib-20081119-2.x86_64.rpm
- Add the below rpm from your rhel 5.x repo (or wherever you can find it):
virt-what-1.11-2.el5.x86_64.rpm
- Create the repo - 'createrepo -s sha1 .'
2) Add the repo on your client:
[rhsm]
name=Subscription Manger $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://<your-server.name/path/to/repo
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
3) Install subscription-manager and python-hashlib
- yum install subscription-manager python-hashlib
4) A couple times, I've ran into this error when using subscription-manager: "'module' object has no attribute 'get_warnings'"
- vi /usr/share/rhsm/subscription_manager/hwprobe.py : remove dmidecode.get_warnings()
(lines 439-443, although your line numbers may vary)
- I'm not sure why I don't always get that error, but it's happened a couple different times following the above steps exactly.
-------------
I'll be sending a couple more emails shortly with other issues :)
