Cobbler keeps getting stuck importing the PAE version of this distro on stage F-10/GOLD/Fedora/i386/os. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/lib/cobbler/triggers/sync/post/osversion.trigger", line 356, in ? distro = update_comment(distro) File "/var/lib/cobbler/triggers/sync/post/osversion.trigger", line 287, in update_comment profile_id = cobbler.get_profile_handle(distro['name'],token) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1096, in __call__ return self.__send(self.__name, args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1383, in __request verbose=self.__verbose File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1147, in request return self._parse_response(h.getfile(), sock) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1286, in _parse_response return u.close() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 744, in close raise Fault(**self._stack[0]) xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault 1: "cobbler.cexceptions.CX:'internal error, unknown profile name Fedora-10-PAE_nfs--i386'"> I don't think the cobbler_import.pl script is creating the distro name properly.
I ended up running the following command to remove Fedora-10 [root@lab-stage ~]# /etc/cron.hourly/cobbler_expire_distros.cron Fedora-10 Removing distro Fedora-10_nfs-i386 Removing distro Fedora-10_nfs-PAE-i386 Removing distro Fedora-10_nfs-ppc64 Removing distro Fedora-10-PAE_nfs--i386 Removing distro Fedora-10_nfs-x86_64 Removing distro Fedora-10_nfs-ppc Its a bit drastic but when you consider F10 has been EOL for quite a while its no big deal. It does look like there was a one off import of PAE that went wrong. Notice all the other distro names are correct. FYI - Always use cobbler_expire_distros to remove distros since that will remove them from beaker as well.
This was on beaker-stage. Ahh yues I didn't read that cron script carefully, missed the 'len(sys.argv) > 1', I thought the only way to expire was to actually remove it...
