RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description John Sefler 2018-08-28 20:44:52 UTC
Description of problem:

Originally introduced by RFE Bug 1319927, if the following two plugin configuration files are disabled....

/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/subscription-manager.conf
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/product-id.conf

...and you have set the following in /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
# Manage automatic enabling of yum plugins (product-id, subscription-manager)
auto_enable_yum_plugins = 1

...then a command line call to a subscription-manager module will automatically enable the yum plugins and produce the following output...

WARNING

The yum plugins: /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/product-id.conf were automatically enabled for the benefit of Red Hat Subscription Management. If not desired, use "subscription-manager config --rhsm.auto_enable_yum_plugins=0" to block this behavior.


I suspect the work done to introduce dnf-plugin-subscription-manager RFE Bug 1558411 as an extras package for RHEL76 has introduced a regression with the yum plugins.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager
subscription-manager-1.21.7-1.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
In a terminal window, enable auto_enable_yum_plugins and disable the yum plugins...
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# subscription-manager config --logging.default_log_level=DEBUG
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# subscription-manager config --rhsm.auto_enable_yum_plugins=1
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# sed -i s/1/0/g /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/product-id.conf
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# sed -i s/1/0/g /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/subscription-manager.conf 

In a second terminal window, start tailing the rhsm.log for "repolib"
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# tail -f /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log | grep repolib

In the first terminal window, register to any server
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# subscription-manager register --serverurl=subscription.rhsm.stage.redhat.com:443/subscription
Registering to: subscription.rhsm.stage.redhat.com:443/subscription
Username: stage_auto_testuser
Password: 
The system has been registered with ID: a79e4a47-15dd-4d3b-b5db-4434eab8086f
The registered system name is: ibm-ls22-01.mpc.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com

In the second terminal window, notice...
2018-08-28 16:28:16,286 [DEBUG] subscription-manager:13599:MainThread @repolib.py:129 - The rhsm.auto_enable_yum_plugins is enabled
2018-08-28 16:28:16,287 [DEBUG] subscription-manager:13599:MainThread @repolib.py:184 - Yum plugin: "/etc/dnf/plugins/subscription-manager.conf" already enabled. Nothing to do.
2018-08-28 16:28:16,287 [DEBUG] subscription-manager:13599:MainThread @repolib.py:184 - Yum plugin: "/etc/dnf/plugins/product-id.conf" already enabled. Nothing to do.


Actual results:
  above


Expected results:
1. Expected the output from the register command to report this warning...

WARNING

The yum plugins: /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/product-id.conf were automatically enabled for the benefit of Red Hat Subscription Management. If not desired, use "subscription-manager config --rhsm.auto_enable_yum_plugins=0" to block this behavior.

2. Expected the tailing rhsm.log to report on "/etc/yum/plugins/"; not "/etc/dnf/plugins/".




Additional info:

This bug can be fixed with the following one line change from...

[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# grep use_dnf /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/subscription_manager/repolib.py
        if version.use_dnf:

to...
[root@ibm-ls22-01 ~]# grep use_dnf /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/subscription_manager/repolib.py
        if version.use_dnf=="true":
