Last modified: 2013-08-30 06:39:44 EDT
Created attachment 791698 [details] kickstart profile Description of problem: Empty selectbox to set time zone in the kickstart profile of Fedora. (look at attachment kickstart-profile-fedora.png) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Sat 5.6.0@RHEL6 (kickstart profile for Fedora 19) Sat 5.5.0@RHEL6 (kickstart profile for Fedora 16) SW 2.0@Centos6 (kickstart profile for Fedora 19) How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create repo and channel for Fedora. We don't need to do synchronize. > spacewalk-common-channels -u admin -p xxx -a i386 fedora19 2. Download Fedora DVD and mount it. > wget http://download.englab.brq.redhat.com/released/F-19/GOLD/Fedora/i386/iso/Fedora-19-i386-DVD.iso > mkdir /srv/Fedora19-i386 # disable selinux, because mounted DVD has got "iso9660_t" selinux type and satellite doesn't have a right to read it. > setenforce 0 > mount -o loop Fedora-19-i386-DVD.iso /srv/Fedora19-i386 3. Add distribution > spacewalk-api --server=localhost --user=admin --password=xxx kickstart.tree.create "%session%" distro-fedora19-i386 /srv/Fedora19-i386 fedora19-i386 fedora 4. Create kickstart profile > spacewalk-api --server=localhost --user=admin --password=xxx kickstart.createProfile "%session%" ks-fedora19-i386 none distro-fedora19-i386 $(hostname) redhat 5. Open Systems > Kickstart > profiles > ks-fedora19-i386 > System Details > Locale Actual results: Empty selectbox Expected results: List of timezones Additional info: no tracebacks in logs
Right, for Fedora(s) we do not list any timezones in the rhnKickstartTimezone table. That is why the selectbox is empty. So, we need to get the list of supported timezones from a running fedora system and populate rhnKickstartTimezone table similar to commit 3f9ae912 fo rhel_7. Not a regression.
Since we don't support Fedora, we won't fix this as a Satellite bug. If needed, create a spacewalk BZ. Cliff
