Description Linqing Lu 2010-12-20 08:37:54 UTC

Description of problem:
Timeout of the registration to RHN Satellite(9m+) is more than expected(90s)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor release 5.6 (6.1.el5)

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. insert a new rule in iptables to drop all https packages.
   #iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j DROP
2. register the host to an existed RHN satellite
3. as designed, the function will not succeed because it is using https to register.
  
Actual results:
Timeout after more than 9 minutes

Expected results:
Timeout after 90 seconds

Additional info:

My suggestion
in line 59 of /usr/libexec/ovirt-config-rhn:
"if wget -q -r -nd --no-check-certificate --timeout=90 -O $location $CaCert; then"
the wget will retry 20 time by default, and 90s each.
so it will work as design with adding one more option "tries"here:
Such as "if wget -q -r -nd --no-check-certificate --timeout=90 --tries=1 -O $location $CaCert; then"

Patch

Updated patch -- changes to 30 seconds, 3 tries
Also handles issue with wget not returning valid error code

Testing:  went through the same steps as in the bug description.

Also manually tested error condition change

if [ -e $location -a ! "$(ll $location 2>/dev/null | awk '{print $5}')" = "0" ]; then echo "Success"; else echo "Failed"; fi

# location=/tmp/testing
# rm $location
# run if from above --> Failed (does not exist)
# touch #location
# run if from above --> Failed (exists, but 0 size)
# echo "test" > $location
# run if from above --> Success (exists, non-zero)
