repo is not defined error

[Nicholas Schuetz]

Hello,

I am getting the following error when I try to add two repos to a
profile. I can save the profile with an individual repo defined
though. When more than one is defined I get this error:

    raise CX(_("repo %s is not defined") % r)
---

I see both repos in the repo list:

# cobbler repo list
RHEL-5-i386-INTEG
RHEL-5-i386-PROD
RHEL-5-i386-TEST
RHEL-5-i386-UAT
RHEL-5-i386-THIRDPARTY

I did do a cobbler reposync after creating the latest repo
"RHEL-5-i386-TEST" with cobbler 1.6.3. All other repos where created
with previous versions of cobbler.

Can anyone out there help me understand what is going on here?

I am running cobbler 1.6.3 on RHEL 5 x86.

Regards,

Nick

What command are you running?

i.e:

cobbler profile edit --name=foo --repos="name1 name2 name3" ?

I'm saving a profile in the Cobbler WebUI. I'm not sure which command
is run from that:

http://cobblerserver/cobbler/web/?mode=profile_save

When did you create the repos?  Also using the webapp or from the 
CLI?    Just then or later?

It may be we have a problem with WebUI persistence, but a bit more 
details on steps to recreate from the ground up (say a clean restart of 
cobblerd and a new visit to the webapp)
would be useful in trying to repro this.

Should be easy enough to take care of.  So far the only caching problem 
I'm aware of is images still show up in the images list after you delete 
the image (and only the image) from the CLI.

The previous repos were created from 1.4 branch via the WebUI a month
or two ago. Just today I created another one using 1.6.3's WebUI.

I was able to accomplish editing the profile using the CLI example you gave:

cobbler profile edit --name=MYPROFILE --repos="RHEL-5-i386-TEST
RHEL-5-i386-THIRDPARTY"

Just to be clear before I test this ... You created a new repo via the 
web app, and then went to edit the profile in the web app to reference 
the new repo?

--Michael

[Nicholas Schuetz]

Yes exactly. At first I did not run the cobbler reposync though.

1.) Create Repo with WebUI and Save.
2.) Alter Existing Profile and Try to Save.

Side Question: Why is running cobbler reposync from cron recommended?
Why not run that as part as the WebUI repo_save function? And if
running it from cron is recommended should there be a --quite flag
added to that command?

Sorry: 2.) Alter Existing Profile with WebUI and Try to Save.

It's not run from there because you might want to make a lot of edits 
and then reposync when you were done (it's slow) or need to make 
changes, but there's an open Trac item
for at least creating the repo config files for reposync when the repo 
is edited versus just at reposync time.

Running on cron is fine, you could redirect stdout if you wanted, I 
suppose, so you didn't get the email. You would want to know about
error conditions though and still get a report if there were any. I'd 
recommend something like a reposync.log file, perhaps?
