I have configured foreman with katello scenario and previously configured and synced some repositories and content views (for Red Hat 5 server).

Suddenly, after running some synchronization tasks, the logs returns:

2016-12-30 17:12:14 0b8fc582 [app] [E] RuntimeError: 
There was an issue with the backend service pulp: 404 Resource Not Found.

# hammer ping

candlepin:

    Status:          ok
    Server Response: Duration: 112ms

candlepin_auth:

    Status:          ok
    Server Response: Duration: 79ms

pulp:

    Status:          FAIL
    Server Response:

foreman_tasks:

    Status:          ok
    Server Response: Duration: 40ms

I searched on google, community forums and mailing lists with no accurate results, also restarted all included services.

How can I workaround or solve this issue?

Software Info:

Foreman version: foreman-1.13.2-1 Katello version: katello-3.2.1-1

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2

I have found the root issue of pulp not loading/pinging correctly. I have found that pulp.conf was deleted by foreman in the path /etc/httpd/conf.d/. After adding the content, and also restarting apache httpd, it worked correctly and I can now sync or install any package to the servers.

Sharing the content of pulp.conf:
