Thank you for your bug report. I'm wondering -- where do the client bits that you use on your SuSE client systems come from? (I'm not aware of any SuSE client builds) Thanks. Hi, thank you for looking into this. In the spacewalk Wiki (https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/RegisteringClients) client packages are linked for opensuse. I simply fetched the srpms and build them against sled11sp1. I asked somebody from SuSE to take a look at the bug and take over the bug ownership: https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-devel/2011-September/msg00030.html The problem seems to come from this, which is after zypper executed:
[Fri Sep 16 11:48:01 2011] up2date
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/rhn_check", line 336, in __run_action
(status, message, data) = CheckCli.__do_call(method, params, kwargs)
<type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: 'NoneType' object is not iterable
[Fri Sep 16 11:48:01 2011] up2date D: Sending back response ((6,), 'Fatal error in Python code occured', {})
Investigating, problably zypper returns some non zero if there are elements for zypper ps (lsof)
Can you attach /var/log/zypper.log on the machine where the errata was installed? @hwinther: Is your "/usr/sbin/rhn_check" unmodified? We'd expect the CheckCli.__do_call to be on line 333, not 336. Just want to make sure the __do_call method is unmodified (does not accidentally return none).
Could you please send the checksums of these files, so we're sure to look into the same version as you have installed on your client:
`md5sum /usr/sbin/rhn_check \
/usr/share/rhn/actions/errata.py \
/usr/share/rhn/actions/packages.py`

zypper log file of Errata Update: sledsp1-libpciaccess0-5103
@Duncan Mac-Vicar: I attached the /var/log/zypper.log and the corresponding up2date log file for one errata appliement. @Michael Andres: We are using an unmodified source version 1.5.16-6.9 of the rhn-client-tools and version 0.4-5.1 of zypp-plugin-spacewalk. The checksums are as followed: b4300cfb0ee578799186376b1a301b21 /usr/sbin/rhn_check 66aa3a12613d4f32e454c8611d8417a8 /usr/share/rhn/actions/errata.py 2576fbe2016411229c07b1d05c73e4fb /usr/share/rhn/actions/packages.py Hi, I just want to ask, if there is any recent progress on the bug? Thanks. Hi hwinther, Still haven't figured out what exactly is causing the issue on your system, but I have some more suggestions. I notice that the packages.py checksum doesn't match the one we have and also the version of zypp-plugin-spacewalk is different. Can you update zypp-plugin-spacewalk to 0.4-6.1 from one of these repositories? http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/systemsmanagement:/spacewalk:/1.5/ Try and see if that solves the issue. Afterward, you should also try applying this patch to your Server instance in order for SUSE patches to be installed correctly (it's just one line of code): http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=spacewalk.git;a=commit;h=9da7323af775c288af8dc9c436c3e3da007a509b The file you want to modify should be /usr/lib64/python/site-packages/spacewalk/server/rhnCapability.py You might need to do a `spacewalk-service restart` after applying the patch. Hi, we tested the release 0.4-6.2 of zypp-plugin-spacewalk which appears to solve the issue. Thank you very much for your assistance. Regards |
