Fix from here https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/issues/5372 is already included in my Uyuni version

when I run mgr-create-bootstrap-repo I am getting ERROR: package 'python3-hwdata' not found ERROR: package 'python3-rhnlib' not found ERROR: package 'spacewalk-client-tools' not found ERROR: package 'python3-spacewalk-client-tools' not found ERROR: package 'suseRegisterInfo' not found ERROR: package 'python3-suseRegisterInfo' not found ERROR: package 'venv-salt-minion' not found

but all of these packages are present on my Uyuni server

After long searching I found that I need uyuni client channel to sync. In my case of SLE15sp3 : spacewalk-repo-sync --channel sles15-sp3-uyuni-client-x86_64 then I need to bootstrap it and uyuni client has to be part of it mgr-create-bootstrap-repo -c SLE-15-SP3-x86_64 -d --with-custom-channels --with-parent-channel=sles15-sp3-uyuni-client-x86_64

I hope that this will help someone. I will see how it will be in GUI, now I cannot use it to sync because GUI is ignoring proxy setting to sync repo

I have still issue with SLES12SP5

spacewalk-repo-sync --channel sles12-sp5-uyuni-client-x86_64 is not working, I am getting Channel sles12-sp5-uyuni-client-x86_64 is not custom or does not exist.

then I cannot use it in mgr-create-bootstrap-repo -c SLE-12-SP5-x86_64 -d --with-custom-channels --with-parent-channel=sles12-sp5-uyuni-client-x86_64

--with-parent-channel=sles12-sp5-uyuni-client-x86_64 I think sles12-sp5-uyuni-client-x86_64 is not the parent channel. If you have mirrored SLES12 SP5 from SCC, it should be something like sles12-sp5-pool-x86_64 . But maybe you do not need this option at all. AFAIK it is only needed when multiple are available which may not be the case. Depends on what you mirrored. AFAIK there is no SLED (Desktop) for SLE12, so that option is already gone. SLE15 has more cases where this is needed.

But anyway. What are the logs saying? Please run it in debug mode (--debug) and provide /var/log/rhn/mgr-create-bootstrap-repo/mgr-create-bootstrap-repo.log

Thanks for reply

First of all when I tried to create boostrap repo mgr-create-bootstrap-repo --channel SLE-12-SP5-x86_64 I was getting similar errors as I described in first article : ERROR: package 'venv-salt-minion' not found ... and more

yes you are right that it is not parental channel, but is has to be part of channel SLES12-SP5-Pool for x86_64. If not I get that ERRORs

In the mean time I was able to create bootstraprepo. I am still beginner with uyuni so I an not sure if this is correct way how to do it.

1. in GUI - Software -Manage- Repositories I created new repository :External - Uyuni Client Tools for SLES12 SP5 x86_64

as a samle I used already created SLES15 SP5 repository URL is https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/systemsmanagement:/Uyuni:/Stable:/SLE12-Uyuni-Client-Tools/SLE_12/

2. I created in GUI - Software -Manage- Channel new with name SLES12-SP5-Pool for x86_64

I fill it similar as I have for SLES15 ... In tab repositories I marked previously created repository : External - Uyuni Client Tools for SLES12 SP5 x86_64 Here, one detail is missing in SLES12 channel and that is GPG key ID and key fingerprint, probably because I created it manually. in SLES15 channel it is not missing because I was able to sync it via cli.

after that I was able to do spacewalk-repo-sync --channel sles12-sp5-uyuni-client-x86_64 and mgr-create-bootstrap-repo -c SLE-12-SP5-x86_64 -d --with-custom-channels --with-parent-channel=sles12-sp5-uyuni-client-x86_64

without errors

now Uyuni Client Tool is part of my SLES12-SP5-Pool channel :
