Description of problem: Cron job `foreman-rake reports:summarize` results in "rake aborted! getaddrinfo: Name or service not known" on default installation. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite-6.0.3-RHEL-6-20140321.2 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. One of the cron jobs have: /usr/sbin/foreman-rake reports:summarize Actual results: # /usr/sbin/foreman-rake reports:summarize rake aborted! getaddrinfo: Name or service not known Tasks: TOP => reports:summarize (See full trace by running task with --trace) # echo $? 1 Expected results: On default installation, all should work - cron jobs should not produce errors periodically Additional info: This was initially reported as: http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/4833 As per http://projects.theforeman.org/projects/foreman/wiki/Email_configuration I have configured this: # cat /etc/foreman/email.yaml # Outgoing email settings production: delivery_method: :sendmail but that generates mails for root@$( hostname -d ) so they have permanent errors in my case, but I guess this can be configured somewhere as well.
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.
Created redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/5824 from this bug
this seems like it's a configuration issue - in redmine the bug reporter posted their email.yml which is the default one (which obviously won't work) do we have a way to configure email in the installer, so a correct server will be defined?
Since this becomes an RFE for email configuration, I am keeping the RFE.. marking this as dupe. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1188346 ***
