Description Sayan Das 2023-02-07 14:39:31 UTC

Description of problem:

Newly created sync plans always have Start Date set to "null" and it's not possible the update those sync plans without mentioning the start date every time. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

# rpm -q satellite katello
satellite-6.13.0-4.el8sat.noarch
katello-4.7.0-1.el8sat.noarch


How reproducible:

Always 


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install Satellite 6.13 ( snap 9 )

2. Login as "admin" user, Edit the "Admin" user of the satellite and change its timezone from "Browser Local" to "Kolkata" or "New Delhi"

3. Go to Content --> Sync PLans 

4. Create a "Sync Plan" with all necessary options selected i.e. Start Date, Weekly\daily\monthly and the time to start the sync, etc

5. Once the Sync plan is created, Check back on the "Start Date"

6. Edit the Interval of the plan and try to set it to something else and save.


Actual results:

Point 4: Start Date 'Nil'

Point 5: An error occurred saving the Sync Plan: base Start Date and Time can't be blank


Expected results:

The start Date should not be "Nil' if it was selected during sync plan creation. 


Additional info:

It's reproducible on 6.12 as well ( as long as we don't forget to perform Step 2 )

The only other change I had made in this Sat instance was to change the login user's TZ i.e. from Browser Local to IST ( Kolkata )

# hammer user info --login admin | grep Timezone -B1
Locale:                default
Timezone:              Kolkata


And then used that user to create the Sync plan.

I took Satellite cert exam today. They use 6.11 I believe, at least that's in the exam descriptions. I had troubles as this hit me during the exam. The cert test is done over remote VNC, and my locale on local laptop is Finnish. Also formats was chosen to have Finnish from the gnome settinga.
