I'm pretty sure this has been fixed with all the refactoring that was done. I've not seen this problem in a long time so closing CURRENTRELEASE. |
Description of problem: As of the latest upstream retrace-server, if we fail to detect the kernel version we now see the following message in /var/log/httpd/error_log: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/retrace-server-worker", line 64, in <module> worker.start(kernelver=kernelver, arch=cmdline.arch) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/retrace/retrace_worker.py", line 910, in start self._fail() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/retrace/retrace_worker.py", line 148, in _fail raise RetraceWorkerError(errorcode=errorcode) retrace.retrace.RetraceWorkerError: None Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): retrace-server-1.14-2.el6 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. submit a vmcore which will fail due to kernel detection (either a custom kernel, or one such as in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1149356 Actual results: Backtrace in /var/log/httpd/error_log if we can't detect the kernel version on a vmcore Expected results: No backtrace but some error message indicating the kernel version detection failed (we already have this in retrace_log - maybe point there for the task?) Additional info: Low impact / priority. I filed this bug as I don't think this is the intent of the error handling and it may be a good cleanup at some point.
