How reproductible is this ? I.e. is that a temporary failure ? Did that used to work ? When exactly did this fail ? What is the value of server_url in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn-applet ? What is happening when doing the following command on that box: telnet www.rhns.redhat.com 443 and typing hello and <enter> a couple of time ? Daniel This used to work. I noticed the grey around 10:30 PM MST last night (though it might have greyed out earlier; that was the first I was using the computer), clicked on it, and got the error. After a couple more tries, it started working again. server_url=https://www.rhns.redhat.com/APPLET [kaboom@verdande kaboom]$ telnet www.rhns.redhat.com 443 Trying 66.187.232.100... Connected to xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com (66.187.232.100). Escape character is '^]'. hello Connection closed by foreign host. [kaboom@verdande kaboom]$ I also received this error this past weekend, and sent an email message to applet.com like the applet suggested. I managed to get one applet in that state, but it's relatively hard to reproduce/debug , I will try to fix it before the next release though, Daniel This should be fixed now, the applet tries to reconnect even when it enters a connection error state. I.e. when the connection comes back it should reconnect automatically (unless there is a DNS change in the mean time which is a separate open problem #73480), Daniel |
