Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat.

Description Dave Sullivan 2014-07-18 19:40:30 UTC
Description of problem:

we have this swift application, which needs to put some entry like this in /etc/services: SWRPC.ACCESS.BSS:BS_rmq                         48102/tcp               # SWIFTAlliance_SWRPC ACCESS --. This means the 'service_name' field in services.aug file needs to be able to support colon character. Right now I just directly hacked this file to include colon character by changing this line: let word_re     = /[:a-zA-Z0-9_.+*\/-]+/

file hacked /usr/share/augeas/lenses/dist/systemd.aug

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

[root@seaking ~]# rpm -qa augeas-libs
augeas-libs-1.0.0-5.el6_5.1.x86_64


How reproducible:

see above

Comment 2 Lingfei Kong 2014-07-21 02:43:19 UTC
Can reproduce with augeas-1.0.0-7.el6
Steps to reproduce:
1. Add the following line to /etc/services(the new line number is 10775)
SWRPC.ACCESS.BSS:BS_rmq                         48102/tcp               # SWIFTAlliance_SWRPC ACCESS

2. # augtool print /augeas//error
/augeas/files/etc/services/error = "parse_failed"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/pos = "641020"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/line = "10775"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/char = "0"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/lens = "/usr/share/augeas/lenses/dist/services.aug:81.10-.39:"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/message = "Iterated lens matched less than it should"

Comment 10 Hu Zhang 2015-03-03 08:59:07 UTC
Reproduced with augeas-1.0.0-7.el6.x86_64.

Verified with the package:
augeas-1.0.0-8.el6.x86_64

Steps to verify:
1. Add the following line to /etc/services(the new line number is 10775)
SWRPC.ACCESS.BSS:BS_rmq                         48102/tcp               # SWIFTAlliance_SWRPC ACCESS

2. # augtool print /augeas/files/etc/services/error
Nothing returned.


No parse error returned.
So verified.
