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 Sean Toner 2015-07-28 16:39:35 UTC 
Description of problem:
=======================

On the subscription-manager-gui (1.15.6) when registering the system, a progress dialog box will appear.  Instead of the blue bar moving from left to right, it will alternately flicker from left to right.

However, other progress bar dialogs seem to work correctly (for example, when clicking the Update button to get available subscriptions).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
=============================================================

1.15.6


How reproducible:
=================

Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register a system through the subscription-manager-gui
2. Look at the Progress dialog

Actual results:
===============

The progress bar does not slide from left to right (and back).  It appears to flicker on the left and right (it doesn't "slide" smoothly).  This may confuse end users


Expected results:
=================

The progress bar should slide smoothly from left to right and back.

Comment 2 Adrian Likins 2015-07-29 17:19:10 UTC 
It seems to work as I expect when registering. 

All the pulsing progress bars should be setup to pulse() every 100ms via a gtk timeout, and all seem to be using the default "pulse step" of .1.

The timeout callbacks might be drifting a bit, if there is a lot of events going
on in the mainloop though. 

I suspect I need to see it in action (hence needinfo)
Comment 3 Sean Toner 2015-07-31 14:23:16 UTC 
So I figured out how to repro this.  It only seems to occur when my subscription is registered to production (subscription.rhn.redhat.com).  if I use a devel candlepin it doesn't happen
Comment 4 Adrian Likins 2015-09-08 23:33:37 UTC 
https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/commit/88b405ff9aff2965a4682a587dff79395306ded0

fixes the issue as originally reported (a timer is setup to pulse the progress
bar every 100ms, but instead of one timer, multiple timers were doing it which seemed to confuse the progress bar). The commit above, amongst other things, makes sure there is only one timer created.


(On current master, there is a small pause when persisting consumer certs and writing out post register caches, but the original report was for the progress bars not working at all. The newish pause post register could be fixed, but thats a different bug with a different fix and not likely to be a blocker). So setting this to modified, and splitting into a new bug.
Comment 5 Adrian Likins 2015-09-09 00:04:42 UTC 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1261215 opened for issue mentioned in comment 4.
Comment 6 Adrian Likins 2015-09-24 20:05:33 UTC 
For reference, I suspect https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1257841 is related to this as well (and I suspect, fixed by it as well).
Comment 8 Sean Toner 2015-10-01 15:18:51 UTC 
After clicking the Register button, the blue slider does move from left to right now.  Verified on initial-setup doing a registration as well.
