Description xybal 2015-06-18 13:55:24 UTC
Description of problem:
Cannot create a new operational profile. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Spacewalk 2.2
cobbler-epel-2.0.11-49.el6.noarch
cobbler-2.6.8-1.el6.noarch


How reproducible:

Each time

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install spacewalk 1.3 on centos 5.5 64bit with a postgres backend
2.setup spacewalk channels and respositories
3.create kickstart profile and proceed through process
4.enter root password for kickstart clients in profile, and hit submit

Actual results:

Profil created but cannot be used (cannot click on it, with a grey circle instead of a green check at the end of the line)


Expected results:
Usable profile


Additional info:

In catalina.out I have this error:
Caused by: redstone.xmlrpc.XmlRpcFault: <class 'cobbler.cexceptions.CX'>:'Invalid kickstart template file location /var/lib/rhn/kickstarts/wizard/server_test--1.cfg, it is not inside /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/'


I've got the same kind of result with:

cobbler profile edit --name server_test123:1:SpacewalkDefaultOrganization --kickstart=/var/lib/rhn/kickstarts/wizard/server_test--1.cfg

Comment 1 xybal 2015-06-18 13:58:32 UTC
with the cobbler command I've got :

exception on server: 'Invalid kickstart template file location /var/lib/rhn/kickstarts/wizard/server_test--1.cfg, it is not inside /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/'

Comment 2 dburklan 2015-08-18 07:04:08 UTC
I am running into the exact same issue however this time in Spacewalk 2.3.

> cobbler-2.6.8-1.el6.noarch

New versions of cobbler are currently not supported (Spacewalk defaultly uses it's own patched version based on Cobbler 2.0) and bugs like this are expected.

Comment 4 Tomas Lestach 2015-08-31 09:44:59 UTC
Due to SElinux issues with cobbler from epel repository back in 2012, Spacewalk team (in an effort to keep Spacewalk working) was forced to package cobbler20 and maintain it in the Spacewalk repository.
Spacewalk team also introduced empty cobbler-epel package to allow users to use (on their own) the cobbler from epel, but does not ensure Spacewalk will work with epel cobbler.

Spacewalk team only ensures Spacewalk works with cobbler20 from Spacewalk repository.


I'm closing this BZ as NOTABUG.
