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?

-John

Comment 9 John Mitsch 2015-12-22 18:49:53 UTC
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

Applied in changeset commit:katello|3bfc5f48ab4ba56c1fc5869d9ce4239d27f9b55d.

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 
{"expected_size"=>95920, "error_code"=>"size_mismatch", "actual_size"=>51200, "unit_key"=>{"name"=>"thar", "checksum"=>"04fe527d62daf452d3b359ae1d174a3459e3d4f015b3dfe459154a65ecb64f39", "epoch"=>"0", "version"=>"8.9.8", "release"=>"1", "arch"=>"noarch", "checksumtype"=>"sha256"}}
