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 2015-05-11 16:31:51 UTC 
Description of problem:
A --destination-url is used to specify an rhsm server hostname:port/prefix on the command line.  It should be used to override the [server] hostname port and prefix configurations in rhsm.conf.  In the current rhel6.7 version of subscription-manager-migration, an exception is being thrown because the rhsm.conf file configurations are being used.  This is a regression from the prior rhel6.6 version of subscription-manager-migration.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager-migration
subscription-manager-migration-1.14.6-1.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=https://xmlrpc.rhn.code.stage.redhat.com/XMLRPC --username=qa --password=REDACTED --profilename=rhsm-automation.jsefler-os6 --force --norhnsd --nohardware --nopackages --novirtinfo
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rhn-channel --list
rhel-x86_64-server-6
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# subscription-manager config --server.hostname=bad-hostname.com --server.port=000 --server.prefix=/bad-prefix
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm --destination-url=subscription.rhn.stage.redhat.com
Legacy username: qa
Legacy password: 
Destination username: stage_auto_testuser
Destination password: 
Unable to connect to certificate server: Server error attempting a GET to /bad-prefix/status returned status 404.  See /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more details.
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# 


Actual results:
above

Expected results:
successful migration to the destination rhsm server

Comment 3 Alex Wood 2015-05-14 19:47:31 UTC 
The destination URL needs to be like so:

 --destination-url=subscription.rhn.stage.redhat.com:443/subscription

The format requirements have not changed, so I do not believe this is a regression.  Can you please test again and close this if it is not a bug?
Comment 4 John Sefler 2015-05-14 20:57:51 UTC 
My apologies, I destructively configured a bad hostname, bad port, and bad prefix.  Then I neglected to include a good port and good prefix within the --destination-url.  Of course the steps in comment 0 failed.

 
Retesting....

VERIFIED: --destination-url should be of the format https://hostname:port/prefix
VERIFIED (but not shown):  --destination-url can exclude ":port" or "/prefix" when they are already configured properly in /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
