Description Milan Zázrivec 2013-10-18 10:53:58 UTC
Description of problem:
The following two spacewalk-web modules:

    * RHN::DB::Package
    * RHN::Manifest

make a use of perl-RPM2 package (they 'use RPM2;').
These two modules are being included (through other included modules)
by the following two modules:

    * PXT::ApacheHandler
    * PXT::ApacheAuth

which are setup to load during apache startup (zz-spacewalk-www.conf).

As things are, the perl-RPM2 module does not work with mod_nss in FIPS
mode (likely b/c of use of MD5) and will cause httpd to fail to start.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spacewalk-web-2.0.3-17

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Satellite 5.6, runnin on a fips-enabled system
2. Configure Satellite to use mod_nss, rather than mod_ssl

Actual results:
httpd will fail to start.


Expected results:
httpd starts.

Additional info:
N/A

Comment 2 Michael Mráka 2014-06-18 12:59:59 UTC
perl-RPM2 dependency has been removed.

Final spacewalk master
commit 38e7070e857e6f31335c4858978447fac4a6b00d
 RHN::Manifest is unused
