Description Anand Vaddarapu 2016-02-18 05:38:43 UTC 
Description of problem:

found lots of error logs in /var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log in cds2 server, is there anything wrong? 

[Thu Feb 04 17:26:14 2016] [error] [client x.x.x.x] Skipping loading of repo_auth plugins since no entry for "required_path" in [plugins] section.
[Thu Feb 04 17:26:14 2016] [error] [client x.x.x.x] Skipping loading of repo_auth plugins since no entry for "required_path" in [plugins] section.
[Thu Feb 04 17:26:14 2016] [error] [client x.x.x.x] Skipping loading of repo_auth plugins since no entry for "required_path" in [plugins] section.
[Thu Feb 04 17:26:16 2016] [error] [client x.x.x.x] Skipping loading of repo_auth plugins since no entry for "required_path" in [plugins] section.

[plugins] section in /etc/pulp/repo_auth.conf, like below:
[main]
enabled: true
log_failed_cert: true
log_failed_cert_verbose: false
max_num_certs_in_chain: 100

[repos]
cert_location: /etc/pki/pulp/content
global_cert_location: /etc/pki/pulp/content
protected_repo_listing_file: /etc/pki/pulp/content/pulp-protected-repos

[crl]
location: /etc/pki/pulp/content


According to the code, if plugin path set to none then it produces the error.
**
def _load_plugins(environ):
    '''
    Load required authentication plugins dynamically.
    '''

    config = SafeConfigParser()
    config.read(CONFIG_FILENAME)

    try:
        required_plugin_path = config.get('plugins', 'required_path')
    except Exception, e:
        required_plugin_path = None
        environ["wsgi.errors"].write('Skipping loading of repo_auth plugins since no entry for "required_path" in [plugins] section.')
        return
**

This does not appear to be relevant in pulp-2.8, which will be used in RHUI-3
