It is possible that the repomd "just" has not been created? It takes some time to create it and first hits usually timeouted. Can you try to do this steps after setup: 1. yum install NPalert 2. wait 10 minutes 3. only then run rhn_check If this succeed then this is duplicate of bug already fixed under satellite 530. If not, then it will be new bug. I'm not able to do any more tests before 3 or 4 weeks. I have no satellite and proxy accessible for the moment. I will try to find a way but no guaranty sorry for this. > If this succeed then this is duplicate of bug already fixed under satellite

It doesn't help. Proxy Channel has ID 110 on my Satellite, there is no file named repomd.xml-110:
[root@satellite rhn]# ll *110
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 149114 Mar 5 17:04 repomd_filelists.xml-110
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 17255 Mar 5 17:04 repomd_filelists.xml.gz-110
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 162950 Mar 5 17:04 repomd_other.xml-110
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 17414 Mar 5 17:04 repomd_other.xml.gz-110
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 297999 Mar 5 17:04 repomd_primary.xml-110
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 29837 Mar 5 17:04 repomd_primary.xml.gz-110
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 49 Mar 5 18:29 repomd_updateinfo.xml-110
The problem seems to be this file:
[root@satellite rhn]# cat repomd_updateinfo.xml-110
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<updates>
It looks incomplete.
I removed all files named repomd*-110. After running "yum list available" on my proxy machine the result was the same as above.

Please run a fresh satellite-sync of the Proxy channel, wait 10-20 minutes, then try this process again and report any results. I have done a fresh satellite-sync: satellite-sync --channel redhat-rhn-proxy-5.2-server-i386-5 Same results - repomd_updateinfo.xml-110 is incomplete: [root@satellite rhn]# cat repomd_updateinfo.xml-110 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <updates> I have done some more troubleshooting: There is an errata in the Proxy Channel: RHEA-2009:0273 The corresponding file is: /var/cache/rhn/repomd-errata/1051 If I view this file with Midnight Commander - it looks very different from all other files in /var/cache/rhn/repomd-errata. Could this be the reason of the problem? Well, I was on the right way :-) I have done the following steps: 1) Removed the Proxy channel from my Satellite: PYTHONPATH=/usr/share/rhn/ python satellite_tools/satrm.py --channel redhat-rhn-proxy-5.2-server-i386-5 2) Removed corresponding files from /var/cache/rhn: rm -f /var/cache/rhn/*110 3) Removed the strange file for errata "RHEA-2009:0273": rm -f /var/cache/rhn/repomd-errata/1051 4) Done a fresh satellite-sync of the Proxy channel WITHOUT erratas: satellite-sync --channel redhat-rhn-proxy-5.2-server-i386-5 --no-errata 5) Done a new Proxy installation without any problems. The new channel ID for the Proxy channel is 135 on my Satellite: [root@satellite rhn]# ll *135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 149114 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_filelists.xml-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 17255 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_filelists.xml.gz-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 162950 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_other.xml-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 17414 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_other.xml.gz-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 297999 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_primary.xml-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 29910 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_primary.xml.gz-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 60 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_updateinfo.xml-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 73 Mar 5 21:06 repomd_updateinfo.xml.gz-135 -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 1239 Mar 5 21:06 repomd.xml-135 The file repomd_updateinfo.xml-135 is now complete: [root@satellite rhn]# cat repomd_updateinfo.xml-135 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <updates> </updates>[root@satellite rhn]# This bug should be fixed as quick as possible! Miroslav, can you take a quick look at this and see if there is anything obvious that is different about this case than all the other Proxy servers in the wild? I have reproduced the problem. I have removed /var/cache/rhn/*135 - the repo files for the Proxy channel with ID 135 on my Satellite. After that I have done a satellite-sync. Now the errata "RHEA-2009:0273" is available in the Proxy channel. On my proxy machine: [root@rhnproxy yum]# yum clean all Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security Cleaning up Everything [root@rhnproxy yum]# yum list available Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security rhel-i386-server-5 | 1.4 kB 00:00 primary.xml.gz | 1.9 MB 00:00 rhel-i386-server-5 5154/5154 rhel5-i386-custom | 1.2 kB 00:00 primary.xml.gz | 1.3 kB 00:00 rhel5-i386-custom 2/2 rhn-tools-rhel-i386-server-5 | 1.2 kB 00:00 primary.xml.gz | 29 kB 00:00 rhn-tools-rhel-i386-server-5 385/385 Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: redhat-rhn-proxy-5.2-server-i386-5. Please verify its path and try again [root@rhnproxy yum]# On my Satellite: [root@satellite rhn]# cat repomd_updateinfo.xml-135 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <updates> [root@satellite rhn]# Same problem again - incomplete file! That's why the missing repomd.xml (repomd.xml-135) will never generated. And the strange file /var/cache/rhn/repomd-errata/1051 for errata "RHEA-2009:0273" (Errata ID 1051) is on my Satellite again!

Errata ID 1051 Screenshiot
View of /var/cache/repomd-errata/1051 with Midnight Commander - looks strange
Created attachment 334275 [details]
Errata ID 1050 Screenshiot
View of /var/cache/repomd-errata/1050 with Midnight Commander in comparison - looks okay
