RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. 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. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
The fix for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1191237#c28 had an adverse affect on the handling of the subscription-manager-gui registration dialog when poor credentials are entered.  This was reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1191237#c35

When using subscription-manager-gui to register, entering poor credentials displays an error dialog as expected, but no longer returns the user back to the System Registration credentials dialog to enter corrected credentials.  The entire System Registration workflow dialogs are aborted.  The user must re-initiate the System Registration workflow by clicking "Register" and "Next" to return to the credentials dialog.

This is a minor usability regression.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@10-16-6-29 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager-gui
subscription-manager-gui-1.13.22-1.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
Enter bad credentials on the subscription-manager-gui registration dialog.

Actual results:
The registration dialogs close with an error message.

Expected results:
The error message should display, but the credentials dialog should remain so that the user can correct them.
