Bug 1395884

We have tested (or attempted to test) bug like this when Spacewalk 2.6 was to be released. This is a clone of that bug to get it re-tested on Satellite 5.8.0. In some cases bug can be completely irrelevant (in such cases I suggest to close the bug as NOTABUG), in some cases it might be wise to take the bug as a note that something changed in a given area and we might want to sanity-test that area (and mark the bug as VERIFIED with "SanityOnly" keyword) and in some cases bug might be totally relevant to Satellite.



+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1179333 +++

Hello Everyone,
space_cmd failing  to import *.json configuration channel when file type "Directory" is created under the channel, because key contents is empty or not exist.

Command:

spacecmd -d configchannel_import oel6-general.json -u rhn_update

Error: 

ERROR: redstone.xmlrpc.XmlRpcFault: Invalid argument(s): contents


Fix:

/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/spacecmd/configchannel.py


1067                 if filedetails['type'] == 'directory':
1068                     isdir = True
1069                     if filedetails.has_key('contents'):
1070                         del filedetails['contents']

Used this file for testing: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=990404&action=edit

  # spacecmd -u <user> -p <pass> -- configchannel_import db-postgresql-wal-el7.json
  INFO: Spacewalk Username: <user>
  INFO: Connected to https://<fqdn>/rpc/api as admin
  INFO: Importing config channel  Database PostgreSQL WAL EL7
  INFO: Found file /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf for cc Database PostgreSQL WAL EL7
  INFO: Found directory /var/lib/pgsql/data/wal-archive for cc Database PostgreSQL WAL EL7

Import worked and on webUI I can see 1 file and 1 directory in the created config channel.

I have tested on both SWnightly@OracleXE10@RHEL6 and SWnightly@PostgreSQL@RHEL7 (spacecmd-2.6.16-1.el6).
