rhel8.8

[root@kvm-02-guest06 yum.repos.d]# rpm -qa | egrep 'cockpit|subscription|insights|syspurpose'

dnf remove insights-client

run firefox and open cockpit app

try to register a system and you will see 'A package insights-client will installed'

after you click on a 'Register' button you will see a message 'Checking installed software' with a rotating circle and red 'Oops' will appear on the top bar of the application.

The application gets frozen in this state.

I will attach js console.log and a piece of the source code the error has arisen from.

I *think* this issue could be what was fixed by
https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager-cockpit/pull/37
(only in subscription-manager-cockpit, fixed in 9.2)

If that's the case, you should not get the issue when doing the same steps in 9.2.

In addition to this, most likely we will need also
https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager-cockpit/pull/46

Final verification: verifying against subscription-manager-cockpit-6-1.el9.noarch

 Beaker Test information:
                         HOSTNAME=kvm-01-guest10.lab.eng.rdu2.redhat.com

[root@kvm-01-guest10 ~]# 

Steps to verify:

1-Register the system using cockpit, enable check box for "Connect this system to insights"

Verified :  A box appears with error message instead of the application got stuck (with 'Oops' on the top bar)
