Description Jan Hutař 2015-07-13 12:27:21 UTC
Description of problem:
Hammer says "Error: 301 Moved Permanently" when you are missing "https://" in server option. It is not user-friendly and I had to bug developer to find that typo.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rubygem-hammer_cli-0.1.4.11-1.el6_6sat.noarch


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. hammer --server $(hostname) --username admin --password changeme organization create --label 'satellite-qa' --name 'satellite-qa'


Actual results:
# hammer --server $(hostname) --username admin --password changeme organization create --label 'satellite-qa' --name 'satellite-qa'
Could not create the organization:
  Error: 301 Moved Permanently


Expected results:
Some useful error message explaining what is wrong


Additional info:
Running with "https://" is OK:

# hammer --server https://$(hostname) --username admin --password changeme organization create --label 'satellite-qa' --name 'satellite-qa'
Organization created

Comment 9 Martin Bacovsky 2016-04-27 09:15:52 UTC
The change in hammer-cli-foreman requires apipie-bindings >= 0.0.16 to get working (or https://github.com/Apipie/apipie-bindings/pull/41 cherry-picked as well)

Comment 10 Sachin Ghai 2016-05-09 08:01:52 UTC
Reproducible with sat62 GA snap10.1 though error is bit different:

~]# hammer --server $(hostname) -u admin -p changeme product create --name test1 --organization-id 1
Error: undefined method `request' for #<String:0x000000045e36a8>

NoMethodError (undefined method `request' for #<String:0x00000003fce3d0>):

with "https://" working as expected.
 ~]# hammer --server https://$(hostname) -u admin -p changeme product create --name test1 --organization-id 1
Product created

Comment 12 Martin Bacovsky 2016-05-20 13:07:00 UTC
The issue is fixed by patch in apipie-bindings https://github.com/Apipie/apipie-bindings/pull/44

Comment 17 Lukas Zapletal 2017-08-30 12:18:31 UTC
[root@zzzap ~]# hammer --server $(hostname) --username admin --password changeme ping
Redirection of API call detected.
It seems hammer is configured to use HTTP and the server prefers HTTPS.
Update your server url configuration
you can set 'follow_redirects' to one of :default or :always to enable redirects following

[root@zzzap ~]# vim /etc/hammer/cli.modules.d/foreman.yml 
https://github.com/mbacovsky/hammer-cli-foreman/blob/4a9eceb007ad9dcea3d5052b83a1f96bf5e176af/config/foreman.yml

[root@zzzap ~]# hammer --server $(hostname) --username admin --password changeme ping

foreman_tasks:  
    Status:          ok

One nitpick tho, the config file has no examples, it is modified by puppet perhaps.

[root@zzzap ~]# rpm -q foreman katello
foreman-1.15.3-2.el7sat.noarch
katello-3.4.4-2.el7sat.noarch
