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 John Sefler 2015-04-16 14:37:22 UTC 
Description of problem:
Technically the error message "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid'" encountered when attempting to run rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm that has not been registered classically is correct.  However it is not as graceful as it has been in the past.  Hence, some friendly error handling seems to have recently regressed.  I suspect commit 5df7aaaa69a22b9e3f771971f1aa4e58657c8377

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager-migration
subscription-manager-migration-1.14.5-1.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
Make sure we are not registered classically and attempt to run rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm...
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rm -rf /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid'


Actual results:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid'

Expected results:
Problem encountered getting the list of subscribed channels.  See /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more details.

Notice that the user is now stopped immediately when attempting to run rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm without first being registered classically.  This is better than the initial behavior since there is no point in running rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm if you are not first registered classically.
