Description Xixi 2010-11-24 01:41:46 UTC

Description of problem:
After customer updates RHN Proxy server to version 5.4 the following occurs:

[root@cyclops RPMS]# rhn_package_manager -c i386-client-5.5 i686/kmod-openafs-*2.6.18-194.26.1*
Red Hat Network username: 
Red Hat Network password:

Error Message:
The package's md5 digest has not been specified
Error Class Code: 50
Error Class Info: Invalid information uploaded to the server
Explanation:

persists please enter a bug report at bugzilla.redhat.com.
If you choose to submit the bug report, please be sure to include

However the openafs kmod packages were produced on a fully updated rhel5.5 system and the md5 digest exists in the rpm.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHN Proxy 5.4 server, register against Hosted.
2. Try to upload custom pkg to custom channel (see example above).
3.
  
Actual results:
Failure. "The package's md5 digest has not been specified" error (see above)

Expected results:
Success with no errors.

Additional info:
This is not seen with RHN Proxy server against 5.4 Satellite.

Comment 3 Xixi 2010-11-24 02:32:22 UTC

Additionally, if -v flag is used the actions fail even earlier.  Bug 656753 has been filed separately.

Comment 4 Miroslav Suchý 2010-12-03 14:58:24 UTC

We do not send md5sum header. We now send checksum and checksum type, which hosted could not handle.
I override rhn_package_manager to send md5 checksum as well.
