Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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 Mike McCune 2015-04-27 21:39:03 UTC 
Download a repo with a broken package (corruption or checksum mismatch) and the Task will still be green/success with a message:

 Output:
   New packages: 23 (426 KB).
   Failed to download 1 package.

but the user won't see this until they view the details of the task.

This is misleading and should be in a Warning state.

Comment 2 Mike McCune 2015-04-27 21:42:08 UTC 
An example repo with an intentionally corrupted RPM can be found here:

https://mmccune.fedorapeople.org/repos/broken-checksum/

the package 'thar' has been truncated to only be 50k when it should be ~97K

https://mmccune.fedorapeople.org/repos/broken-checksum/thar-8.9.8-1.noarch.rpm
Comment 5 Mike McCune 2015-11-20 22:09:19 UTC 
additionally also saw the same behavior installing errata on a host, shows up green/success but actually failed.

Comment 7 Mike McCune 2015-11-24 16:18:27 UTC 
Ignore the first part of this bug in the description, this was resolved by:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1246054

but the latter half needs to be resolved as we are not properly telling the user an errata installation failed.
Comment 8 John Mitsch 2015-12-11 19:44:29 UTC 
Mike,

Is there faulty errata that can be used to recreate this?

Created redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/12922 from this bug
Comment 10 Bryan Kearney 2015-12-22 19:01:24 UTC 
Upstream bug component is WebUI
Comment 11 Bryan Kearney 2016-01-04 21:01:50 UTC 
Moving to POST since upstream bug http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/12922 has been closed

Comment 12 John Mitsch 2016-01-06 22:22:35 UTC 
The upstream fix addressed a failed repo sync, but not a failed errata install. Since these are two separate issues and as far as I can see have to be addressed separately, I opened up a new bug at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1296334 for the errata install failing.
Comment 14 jcallaha 2016-02-04 21:10:13 UTC 
Verified in Satellite 6.1.7 compose.

A warning state is now presented.

An error occurred during the sync
