Secondary repository sync status

Good morning,
Following the migration of our main server to Linux (previously on Windows), our secondary repositories, which are still on Windows, remain in a "TO UPDATE" synchronization status. Aside from this, everything seems to be working.

Our version of WAPT is 2.6.1.17787
Do you have any ideas on how to solve this problem?
THANKS

Hi Christophe,
great job on the Windows to Linux server migration!
What message do you get when you click "refresh index"? Is the sync.json file created (with a consistent timestamp) and with the correct permissions? Did you restart the postconf after the update?
Regards,
Denis

Hi Denis,
So, indeed, we hadn't run the postconf, but that doesn't fix the problem.
Regarding the sync.json file, it's present with a consistent date and time (this morning), and when I select "update index," it says "update sync.json." No error.
Do you have any other ideas?

Hi Christophe,
is it Red Hat or a derivative? If so, is SELinux enabled?

Denis,
we're on Debian 13 and SELinux is not enabled.

Hello,
Without any intervention on my part, the status has returned to green since last Thursday!
The mysteries of computers have struck again
Thank you and have a good day,
