Description John Sefler 2011-07-29 20:00:08 UTC
Created attachment 515927 [details]
Activate should be Redeem

Description of problem:
The terminology for activating a DELL machine was recently changed in the subscription-manager-cli from "activate" to "redeem".  This same change should be made in the subscription-manager-gui

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager-gnome
subscription-manager-gnome-0.96.4-1.git.67.570f1e8.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. add the following to /etc/candlepin/candlepin.conf on your on premises candlepin server and restart candlepin
candlepin.subscription.activation.debug_prefix = redemption

2. register using using --name=redemption90210
subscription-manager register --username=testuser1 --password=password --org=admin --name=redemption90210

3. start subscription-manager-gui
  
Actual results:
see attached screenshot

Expected results:

Fixed in master at 34d388faaf2124edf5036e74ca49cdd8db7d5250 (merge is at 57441fbd6a287c84714f2e37d836621484c4f02e). 

One question, I get a permission denied when I do this. Is this another bug?

verification of Activation => Redeem rename

Look at the screenshot -still need an edit to a candlepin error message:

Standalone candlepin does not support activation.

Suggestions:
Standalone candlepin does not support redeeming a subscription.
Standalone candlepin does not support subscription redemption.

Comment 5 Bryan Kearney 2011-08-02 17:02:31 UTC
Chris Duryee fixed this in 58115c1f of candlepin in master.
