Description Martin Korbel 2016-09-22 12:08:26 UTC

Description of problem:
Problem with deprecated functions on Fedora 24, when we set two serverURL in up2date.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhn-client-tools-2.6.1-1.fc24

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. We have got machine with F24 and try to register to SW or Sat5. We set up primary and secundary SW in serverURL in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
> echo "serverURL=https://does_not_exists.redhat.com/XMLRPC; https://elisha.brq.redhat.com/XMLRPC" >> /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date'
2. register
 > rhnreg_ks --activationkey=1-xxx
An error has occurred:
<class 'NameError'>
See /var/log/up2date for more information

> tail var/log/up2date

    typ, uri = urllib.splittype(self.serverList.server())
<class 'AttributeError'>: module 'urllib' has no attribute 'splittype'


Actual results:
  the setup don't work with two servers in serverURL in up2date on F24

Expected results:
  the registration pass without error.

Comment 4 Radovan Drazny 2016-11-14 10:45:50 UTC

Reproduced similar (and not quite same) behavior on rhn-client-tools-2.5.16-1.fc24 with the reproducer from the initial report.

<class 'up2date_client.up2dateErrors.CommunicationError'>: rhn-plugin: Error communicating with server. The message was:
Name or service not known

Updated to rhn-client-tools-2.6.6-1.fc24. There was no problem with using the fallback server in the /etc/sysconfig/up2date file, and the Fedora 24 system registered correctly to the Spacewalk server.

This looks like it was fixed in previous release, but I'm closing it in this one.

Spacewalk 2.7 has been released.
