Description Sebastian Hetze 2016-04-06 05:48:27 UTC

Description of problem:

If a product repo URL is pointing to an empty directory (one without repodata), the sync hangs.

With Sat 6.1 we had an immediate "Yum Metadata: A connection error occurred" which I would regard as the expected behaviour.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
katello 3.0.0. 3.el7sat
foreman 1.11.0.9 1.el7sat

Comment 1 Brad Buckingham 2016-04-19 20:13:04 UTC

With Satellite 6.2 beta snap 8, I attempted the following:
- create product
- create repo, w/ url that points to the satellite's pub directory (e.g. http://mysatellite/pub), since it doesn't have repodata.
- attempt to sync the repo

With the above, the sync task immediately failed (State:stopped, Result:warning).  Looking at the task via 'More Details' the following error was observed: 
  "RPM1004: Error retrieving metadata: Not found"

Based on the above, I am going to move this one to ON_QA for verification.

Tried syncing http://mysatellite/pub, faced the below message immediately upon clicking "Sync Incomplete".

RPM1004: Error retrieving metadata: Not found


VERIFIED with sat62-snap(GA)-12.1
