up2date -fu error: Unable to fetch requested Package

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello list,

I try to update a RHEL 4.7 server connected to RHN. The server is
connected to RHN through a webproxy.

up2date -fu fails this way:


Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies...
########################################
NetworkManager-0.3.1-5.el4.  An error has occurred:
Unable to fetch requested Package


/var/log/up2date looks like this while up2date -fu is running:

I can sucessfully connect to https://xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com from a user
where the same webproxy is used as what is specified in the httpProxy
variable in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date.

[myuser@myserver ~]$ elinks -dump https://xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com/
   Red Hat Network
[myuser@myserver ~]$


up2date --hardware -v do not return anything and seems to work. tcpdump
shows that communication with the proxy seems to work well, also during up2date
-fu.

After googling a bit I have found this:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=497364

Which supposedly is a dupliacte of

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489328

Do you think this can be the cause? If, I will probably need to get the updated
rhnlib manually and then rerun up2date -fu.

Any other suggestions for further troubleshooting is appreciated.

Best regards,

Erling Ringen Elvsrud
