On satellite 6 repo Selection drop down menu is not providing list of available repositories

Environment

• Red Hat Satellite 6.1

Issue

• When trying to select repositories in Satellite, the menu does not expand to allow selection. Also, tried restarting the server but issue persists.
• After rebooting satellite server, manifest got vanished.

Resolution

• Verify whether the correct manifest is uploaded on the satellite web UI which should contain RHEL subscriptions. If the correct manifest is imported then try refreshing it by logging in to the web UI.

Navigate to : Content -> Red Hat Subscriptions -> Manage Manifest -> Click on 'Refresh Manifest' button

See if you are able to enable the RHEL repository at :
Content -> Red Hat Repositories -> Drop down menu

• If issue still persists try deleting the manifest and upload a new manifest by downloading from portal.
• After importing new manifest the issue seems to be resolved.
