Created attachment 1119181 [details] sequence of screens link to Polarion TestCase https://polarion.engineering.redhat.com/polarion/#/project/RHEL6/workitem?id=RHEL6-17112&revision=479643 Description of problem: User cannot see server details after he click "Back" button. How reproducible: Launch Firstboot and Accept the License Agreement ------> Select "Register to Subscription-Management Service " Option ------> Enter the server Details and click on Next ------> Now Click on "Back" button on the page where you are supposed to enter credentials Actual results: There is no server details window. Expected results: User should be able to change server details after he decides to go back. Additional info: I have attached screenshots how they appeared. Thanks, Jan Stavel
Saving some time... This bug is indeed a Regression from the RHEL6.7 version of subscription-manager-firstboot-1.14.10-1.el6.x86_64 I suspect the development of RHEL7 subscription-manager-initial-setup-addon-1.15.9-15.el7.x86_64 has introduced this regression on el6.
Adding more observations to this bugzilla.... Once the user has successfully gone "Forward" through all of the subscription-manager firstboot panels and successfully lands on the "Done" panel, clicking the "Back" button will navigate to the "Choose Service" panel which is effectively the module prior to subscription-manager-firstboot (which is arguably correct), then a click of the "Forward" button tries to attach subscriptions again (which is not right). Once the user has successfully gone "Forward" through all of the subscription-manager firstboot panels and successfully lands on the "Done" panel and then click the "Forward" button to the next module (Create User)), clicking the "Back" button will navigate to the "Attaching Subscription" panel which will oscillate and then throw an error dialog stating "No available subscriptions at the current service level...". Arguably, this is not the best panel to go back to. It might be better to go all the way back to the first prompt of the firstboot module to enter an entitlement server hostname.
Verifying Version... [root@jsefler-6 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager-firstboot subscription-manager-firstboot-1.16.8-4.el6.x86_64 Testing Comment 0... VERIFIED: When the user gets to the Subscription Management registration credentials panel, clicking Back will navigate all the way back to the "Choose Service" panel where a click of Forward will re-initiate subscription-manager-firstboot and the user can enter the server information details again. This is the newly expected Back/Forward workflow behavior (to re-start the subscription-manager-firstboot panels from the beginning). Testing Comment 9... VERIFIED: When the user reaches the "Done!" panel and clicks Back, then Forward into Subscription Management, the user sees the "Done!" panel again. This is the new expected behavior. When the user is done, the user is done! To change their registration, he will have to use the subscription-manager CLI/GUI tools post firstboot.
