If you open dev console in a browser you can open a row in js file that throws an exception:
function h(e, t) {
var n, o = JSON.parse(window.localStorage["os-release"] || "{}"), r = c(e)[0];
if (r && (n = window.getComputedStyle(r)), n) {
var a, i = n.content;
return i && "none" != i && "normal" != i ? (a = i.length, ('"' === i[0] || "'" === i[0]) && a > 2 && i[a - 1] === i[0] && (i = i.substr(1, a - 2)),
r.innerHTML = d.format(i, o) || t, c(r).text()) : void 0;
}
}
And it points to a line with JSON.parse(window.localStorage["os-release"]...)
Fixing upstream: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/7730 This will be fixed in 7.5 through rebasing Cockpit to upstream version 153. See bug 1470780.

Description of problem: a link /usr/lib/os-release may point to a wrong path. I do not know how but if I create instance in ci-rhos the link '/usr/lib/os-release' points to a wrong path '/usr/lib/os-release.d/os-release-rhel' instead of '/usr/lib/os.release.d/os-release-rhel'. cockpit runs but if I log-in I see just empty page. How reproducible: Everytime.
