Description Lukas Zapletal 2011-09-06 08:51:43 UTC

On adding the entry

module.config.katello=org.fedoraproject.candlepin.katello.KatelloModule

to /etc/candlepin/candlepin.conf

[root@localhost tomcat6]# curl -k -u admin:admin https://localhost:8443/candlepin/status
{"displayMessage":"Error contacting user service"}

# rpm -q katello candlepin
katello-0.1.76-1.git.0.abd2ee8.el6.noarch
candlepin-0.4.11-1.el6.noarch

Removing that line the error message disappears.

Would you expect this api to work?

That's what the step three in

   https://fedorahosted.org/katello/wiki/Install#Candlepin

leads users to believe. Either the code is broken or the documentation is wrong.

When oauth is enabled on the Candlepin it does not support HTTP authentication. I have submitted a patch with nicer error message. I think we can close this one.

We need to keep this line. Please reopen if you think this is still an issue.
