I’m having trouble getting cobbler to sync packages for an arch that
is different to the cobbler servers own. I have cobbler running on an
i386 box and for one of the repos I’m mirroring I want to pull down
x86_64. However when the repository syncs down it will only pull the
noarch RPM’s and completely ignores the x86_64 ones. I have the
correct arch set for the repo as is shown in the output of cobbler
repo report:
I missed this in the queue earlier. The arch parameter is needed for
reposync (part of yum, not to be confused with the cobbler reposync
which knows about both yum and rsync) to pull down files of a different
arch. I would file a bug with yumdownloader (see the
/usr/bin/yumdownloader) command below if you think it's not pulling down
the right packages.
repo : dag-EL4-x86_64
mirror : http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/x86_64/rpmforge/
keep updated : True
priority : 99
rpm list : ['nagios-plugins', 'nagios-nrpe', 'zonecheck']
createrepo_flags : -c cache
arch : x86_64
yum options : {}
In this example the zonecheck rpm (which is noarch) is pulled but the
two nagios rpm’s are ignored.:
# cobbler reposync --only=dag-EL4-x86_64
- creating: /var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/.origin/dag-EL4-x86_64.repo
- /usr/bin/yumdownloader --resolve -c
/var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/.origin/dag-EL4-x86_64.repo
--destdir=/var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/dag-EL4-x86_64 nagios-plugins
nagios-nrpe zonecheck
No Match for argument nagios-plugins
No Match for argument nagios-nrpe
/var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/dag-EL4-x86_64/zonecheck-2.0.4-1.2.el4.rf.noarch.rpm
already exists and appears to be complete
- createrepo -c cache /var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/dag-EL4-x86_64
1/1 - zonecheck-2.0.4-1.2.el4.rf.noarch.rpm
Saving Primary metadata
Saving file lists metadata
Saving other metadata
- creating: /var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/dag-EL4-x86_64/config.repo
Does anyone have any ideas where im going wrong or what I need to do
to make it work? If it helps I’m running on RHEL5 with the following
versions:
# rpm -qa| egrep -i "cobbler|yum"
yum-utils-1.0.4-3.el5
yum-updatesd-3.0.1-5.el5
yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.2-5.el5_1.2
yum-3.0.1-5.el5
yum-security-1.0.4-3.el5
cobbler-0.8.2-1.el5
yum-metadata-parser-1.0-8.fc6
Thanks
