Previously, the rhevm-image-uploader tool would ignore the --insecure option, causing image upload operations to fail and display an unnecessary trace. With this update, the --insecure option now functions correctly.

Description akotov 2014-09-02 14:39:08 UTC
Description of problem:

rhevm-image-uploader ignores insecure option and shows unnecessary trace

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

rhevm-image-uploader-3.4.1-1.el6ev.noarch

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. configure user/pw/engine URL in /etc/ovirt-engine/imageuploader.conf
2. run engine-image-uploader -e export -N manageiq upload cfme-rhevm-5.3-15.x86_64.rhevm.ova -v --insecure

Actual results:

[root@dell-pe1650-02 ~]#  engine-image-uploader -e export -N manageiq upload cfme-rhevm-5.3-15.x86_64.rhevm.ova -v --insecure
ERROR: Problem connecting to the REST API.  Is the service available and does the CA certificate exist?
ERROR: 'NoneType' object is not iterable
INFO: Use the -h option to see usage.
DEBUG: Configuration:
DEBUG: command: upload
DEBUG: Traceback (most recent call last):
DEBUG:   File "/usr/bin/engine-image-uploader", line 1597, in <module>
DEBUG:     imageup = ImageUploader(conf)
DEBUG:   File "/usr/bin/engine-image-uploader", line 402, in __init__
DEBUG:     self.upload_to_storage_domain()
DEBUG:   File "/usr/bin/engine-image-uploader", line 1316, in upload_to_storage_domain
DEBUG:     (id, address, path) = self.get_host_and_path_from_export_domain(self.configuration.get('export_domain'))
DEBUG: TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable



Expected results:

- insecure option is honored
- descriptive error is shown when CA file missing instead of " 'NoneType' object is not iterable"


Additional info:

upstream ovirt-engine-uploader fails too

Comment 1 Sandro Bonazzola 2014-09-02 14:53:13 UTC
Simone, can you check what's going on?
This bug is supposed to be fixed as per bug #1104500 on rhevm-image-uploader-3.4.1-1.el6ev

Comment 2 Simone Tiraboschi 2014-09-02 17:39:48 UTC
It's a bit tricky indeed and not so easy to found.
Python SDK insecure parameter simply skips hostname validation from API cert; if, at the same, we also pass a CA cert it still tries to validate that cert against that CA (independently from the hostname).

By default image-uploader is trying to read the CA file 
from /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem
so, if your are running image-uploader from another engine host, it founds another CA cert witch make API cert verification failing.

I'm not sure if it's better to fix it here or on python SDK side.

Comment 3 akotov 2014-09-03 06:58:11 UTC
It also fails if ca.pem is missing completely, not just if CA does not match the host

Comment 10 Rolfe Dlugy-Hegwer 2020-02-20 17:50:23 UTC
> upstream ovirt-engine-uploader fails too

Disambiguation:

The upstream utility is called "engine-iso-uploader" rather than "ovirt-engine-uploader."
Red Hat calls the downstream utility "engine-image-uploader."
