We patched /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/remote.py
https://gist.github.com/jimi1283/5188949
Turns out we were overly strict in our permissions and removed read/excute rights for the webserver.
*joke* We therefore but the blame squarely on our configuration management system allowing us to set permissions on files, maybe I'll submit a issue to the ansible crowd to have this bug/feature removed.
The increased debugging and output from failures would be nice to though. It was just an educated guess that the permissions were off, none of the logs indicated this.

Hello all!
Just checking to see if (when?) cobbler will be updated to utilize puppet 3.x. Currently in settings puppetca_path points to /usr/sbin/puppetca which no longer exists it is now part of puppet itself (puppet certificate_request, see puppet help)

Hello again ;)
When adding repos to cobbler is it possible to add the repos to the installed server? The kickstart usies repo to add the repos during install, but is their a snippet / setting to also push those repos out to /etc/yum.repos.d ?
-Ron
Yes, if you tie a repo to a distro/profile/system then any system installed that ties into either of the 3 will get the repo entry in /etc/yum.repos.d (at least I believe that this is the case).
It should be handled by: $yum_config_stanza (as opposed to $yum_repo_stanza, which includes them in the kickstart)
Cheers, Harry

Okay, so I would need to use both? at the top of the ks add the yum_repo_stanza and near the end add yum_config_stanza?

Thanks!!

Are you talking about during install, or after a system has already been installed?
If you mean after the install is complete, but you want to add more repos, one way to get a new repo config is to download it again from the cobbler server -- the same way that $yum_config_stanza does it; e.g. for a system named "foobar":
wget "http://cobbler-server/cblr/svc/op/yum/system/foobar" --output-document=/etc/yum.repos.d/cobbler-config.repo
For a profile named "foobar":
wget "http://cobbler-server/cblr/svc/op/yum/profile/foobar" --output-document=/etc/yum.repos.d/cobbler-config.repo

No, cobbler doesn't have any official road map unfortunately. I had been considering getting 2.4.0 out the door before the end of March but unfortunately some personal issues* have come up and it will be delayed a bit.
* I'll follow up in a future email, promise :)
