Description Amar Ganbat 2020-04-23 19:17:53 UTC
Description of problem:

http-proxy not working as expected on the Satellite 6.7 

How reproducible:

Configure http proxy and try to enable RH repos and refresh the manifest

// When doing the test via webUI - Infrastructure - HTTP Proxy

# foreman-tail | grep -E '(proxy ip|proxy hostname)'

 Note. Nothing on log


The same proxy server was set on the rhsm.conf

# grep proxy /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf | grep -v ^#
proxy_hostname = proxy name
proxy_scheme = http
proxy_port = 80
proxy_user =
proxy_password =
no_proxy =

And proxy server itself is working correctly and server pull packages with yum.

All accesses to cdn.redhat.com were enabled, and firewalld was disabled.  The satellite server can reach the proxy server. It's not a networking issue. 

2.  WebGUI is producing '407 proxy authentification required' error when trying to test the connection.  The customer's proxy server doesn't use any credentials.   So authentification required error needs to removed.   Maybe this error is somehow connected with the first issue.

Looks like the remaining issue with the incorrect message is a duplicate of BZ1928194. Reducing severity as original problem was resolved and closing as duplicate.
