Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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 of problem:
The error [An error occurred saving the URL: Validation failed: Repository url is too long (maximum is 255 characters)] while updating CDN URL for ISS exported directory path having more than 255 characters.
E.g: http://qeblade36.rhq.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/pub/export/Default_Organization-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_Server-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization_Agents_for_RHEL_6_Server_RPMs_x86_64_6Server/Default_Organization/Library/content/dist/rhel/server/6/6Server/x86_64/rhev-agent/3/os/

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.2 Snap 3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In upstream satellite, Export a redhat repository which path should have more than 255 characters.
2. In downstream satellite, Attempt to update CDN URL in subscription page with exported directory location of step1 which has more that 255 characters.
Note: Example provided in description.

Actual results:
The following error is raised by CDN URL:
An error occurred saving the URL: Validation failed: Repository url is too long (maximum is 255 characters)

Expected results:
Increase the length of CDN URL to contain url having more that 255 chars.

Additional info:

The patch will update this to 1024 char.

For the test data given in comment #0, typically you'd want to use "http://qeblade36.rhq.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/pub/export/Default_Organization-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_Server-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization_Agents_for_RHEL_6_Server_RPMs_x86_64_6Server/Default_Organization/Library/", so the "content/dist..." part gets appended to the end.

Applied in changeset commit:katello|16ed3162f23415fe2184deee616036626fbce3a8.

Verified this in Sat 6.2 snap 6.0.

The issue is no more reproducible and fixed.

I see the CDN URL is taking more than 255 characters and not throwing any error.

So changing the status as Verified.
