Description of problem: Sat 530 RHEL-4 installer fails with dep errors: RHN Satellite installation log. Command: ./install.pl --answer-file=/root/answers.txt No updates available for this system ERROR: RPM dependency error. The message was: Dependencies should have already been resolved, but they are not. Unresolved rpm dependencies: Package cobbler 1.3.4-1.el4 requires tftp-server Package cobbler 1.3.4-1.el4 requires python-devel Package cobbler 1.3.4-1.el4 requires createrepo Package cobbler 1.3.4-1.el4 requires mkisofs also rhel-4 cobbler should not depend on createrepo. Thanks, ~ Prad
cobbler should depend on createrepo, satellite should be using it to generate the repodata for RHEL5 guests. there is a createrepo in EPEL, there is also one that was used by brew.
jus fyi, for rest of the deps we need to include tftp-server,python-devel, mkisofs in updates/rhelrpms in the installer. ~ Prad
fixed the rest of the deps in here: [pkilambi@prad java]$ locate rhelrpms /home/pkilambi/code/cvs/rhn/satellite/updates-redhat-linux-as-i386-4/rhelrpms /home/pkilambi/code/cvs/rhn/satellite/updates-redhat-linux-as-s390-4/rhelrpms /home/pkilambi/code/cvs/rhn/satellite/updates-redhat-linux-as-s390x-4/rhelrpms /home/pkilambi/code/cvs/rhn/satellite/updates-redhat-linux-as-x86_64-4/rhelrpms [pkilambi@prad java]$ these are the only rhelrpms files I can find in our src (cvs/svn/git)..not sure if these are outdated or if we have this file hiding somewhere else. If the above are correct, it now includes tftp-server,python-devel,mkisofs. If there is any other place please lemme know and I can fix there as well. once we fix the createrepo issue and have the new iso spin I can revalidate the same. Thanks,
rhelrpms in the devel cvs has been updated to include tftp-server,python-devel,mkisofs. dgilmore also included createrepo in RHEL-4 compose. So we should be all set. moving to modified.
spacewalk-java now needs new cobbler: --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: cobbler >= 1.4 is needed by package spacewalk-taskoma tic Error: Missing Dependency: cobbler >= 1.4 is needed by package spacewalk-java need to include cobbler 1.4 in brew and update the compose to grab the new version of cobbler. Thanks, ~ Prad
Saw no errors during installation of Satellite 530 (re20081223.2) and after installation, ran the following: [root@fjs-0-04 ~]# service cobblerd status cobblerd (pid 26427 26417 26416) is running... Moving to VERIFIED.
Moving to RELEASE_PENDING I installed ISO: Satellite-5.3.0-RHEL4-re20090724.0-s390x.iso Didn't see any install related problems
