Description Mohammed Arafa 2013-08-05 14:00:25 UTC 
Description of problem:
when you attempt to create a channel that is already created and available you get this error message:
ERROR: centos6-x86_64: redstone.xmlrpc.XmlRpcFault: Invalid entitlement

it is however misleading because it is not an entitlement issue


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1.create channels with
/usr/bin/spacewalk-common-channels -u $user -p $password -a x86_64 'centos6*'  -k unlimited
2.run the same command again
3.

Actual results:
ERROR: centos6-x86_64: redstone.xmlrpc.XmlRpcFault: Invalid entitlement

Expected results:
something along the lines of 
ERROR: centos6-x86_64: channel already exists

Right, 'Invalid entitlement' isn't a very helpful message.
