Hi, I found repository settings when importing distribution might have some troubles. After importing distribution using "cobbler import", config.repo file is generated, but it seems python-cheetah templating doesn't work for "@@server@@" in config.repo file. # cat /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/config/centos5-i386-0.repo ----- [core-0] name=core-0 baseurl=http://@@server@@/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5 enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 ----- # cobbler report ----- distro : centos5-i386 kernel : /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz initrd : /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5/images/pxeboot/initrd.img kernel options : {} architecture : x86 ks metadata : {'tree': 'http://@@server@@/cblr/links/centos5-i386'} breed : redhat ----- I checked source files and gitweb and found that "@@something@@" is not a bug, but for enabling templating feature for python-cheetah, right? Then, I guess python-cheetah doesn't work well... I tried 2 cases: 1. installing python-cheetah-2.0-0.1.rc8 from RPMforge. 2. get python-cheetah-2.0-0.6.rc SRPM from mirror.linux.duke.edu and built. In both cases, this happened. Q: Is there any requirements for the version of python-cheetah? Also, I tried to fix this using "cobbler distro edit" (because it looked like generating config.repo might be using --ksmeta value.) I replaced "@@server@@" with cobbler server's IP. # cobbler distro edit --name="centos5-i386" --ksmeta="tree=http://192.168.0.254/cblr/links/centos5-i386" # cobbler sync The result of "cobbler report", it seemed to be fixed, but config.repos was not changed and still "@@server@@'" in config.repo and /var/lib/cobbler/distro, both. That means config.repo is generated only when distribution is imported, and will never re-generated by "cobbler sync" based on cobbler's current settings. Therefore, I manually fixed all the files which have "@@server@@" in those, then everything works well.
