*** Apologies - accidentally submitted report prior to completion ****
Description of problem:
When following documented satellite upgrade process, existing web proxy details are not updated in new /etc/rhn/rhn.conf file. The documentation does not indicate that this is the case, and following the process leads to a Traceback error message due to inability to connect directly to satellite.rhn.redhat.com.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.3.0 upgrading to 5.4
How reproducible:
Follow documented process to upgrade satellite server while on a network that requires use of a proxy server to connect to satellite.rhn.redhat.com.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
Running the following command without editing the rhn.conf proxy config.
rhn-satellite-activate --rhn-cert <path-to-cert> --ignore-version-mismatch
Actual results:
RHN_PARENT: satellite.rhn.redhat.com
ERROR: unhandled exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):

sys.exit(abs(mod.main() or 0))

sock.connect((self.host, self.port))
File "<string>", line 1, in connect
socket.error: (113, 'No route to host')
Expected results:
return of the following string only;
RHN_PARENT: satellite.rhn.redhat.com
