errors

Hi.

After deciding to test current, i have done everything as the install
requires, installed the rpm (1.4), configured apache.

I must say that i liked cadmin processing of the rpms directory - deleting
duplicates and so on - something that my project misses yet. I haven't still
decided if to continue developing my project or to try to ajust current to
my needs - this installation has to help me resolve that.

the only catch in my setup is that i don't use mod-ssl - i have disabled it
on my apache long ago, and i don't want to set it back now, since i am using
current on my internal network only. This should also avoid the cert
problems.

Now i am trying to connect to the server : i get the following error :

[Mon Sep 23 21:03:47 2002] [notice] Inside the PythonHandler

in apache error log.

Where to look for solution?

the client is a standard up2date-2.7.86-7.x.3 on RH 7.3, with a valid redhat
sysid , configured to talk to my server by http, not by https . the server
is 7.3, all with latest errata

the config of the client is as follows :

0.  storageDir         /var/spool/up2date
1.  networkSetup       Yes
2.  headerCacheSize    40
3.  httpProxy
4.  debug              No
5.  useGPG             Yes
6.  networkRetries     5
7.  removeSkipList     []
8.  retrieveOnly       No
9.  keepAfterInstall   No
10. enableProxy        No
11. gpgKeyRing         /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date-keyring.gpg
12. proxyUser
13. proxyPassword
14. headerFetchCount   10
15. versionOverride
16. useNoSSLForPackage Yes
17. enableProxyAuth    No
18. noSSLServerURL     http://server/XMLRPC
19. noReplaceConfig    Yes
20. sslCACert          /usr/share/rhn/RHNS-CA-CERT
21. noBootLoader       No
22. systemIdPath       /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid
23. serverURL          http://server/XMLRPC
24. pkgSkipList        []
25. adminAddress       ['root@localhost']
26. forceInstall       No
27. fileSkipList       []
28. retrieveSource     No


by the way, the nrh-up2date script i posted 2 days - after a check i have
discovered it wasn't performing as advertised - not download all arches. Now
it does. It also downloads packages for the child channels defined for the
machine it runs on. See link in prevous email is interested. I am thinking
of maybe merging current server with some mechanism i write to automatically
update the channels stored from rhn network. that script is the key to it.
