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 David Davis 2016-03-24 20:17:44 UTC 
Description of problem:

It looks like we missed a setting in our squid.conf that allows anaconda to retrieve lazy synced packages:

range_offset_limit none


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

6.2 snap 5


How reproducible:

Not always. Packages can sometimes be fetched if they are saved to the filesystem before anaconda retries a 10th time.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download a RHEL kickstart via lazy sync
2. Provision a system using this kickstart
3.

Actual results:

Anaconda fails after 10 attempts to download a package.


Expected results:

Provisioning succeeds


Additional info:

We should probably check our generated squid.conf against pulp's documentation and make sure we aren't missing any other settings.

Comment 3 David Davis 2016-03-28 13:19:04 UTC 
It looks like in addition to range_offset_limit, we're also not setting the following option:

minimum_object_size 0 kB


I wonder if we need to be?

Created redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/14361 from this bug
Comment 5 Bryan Kearney 2016-03-28 14:12:07 UTC 
Upstream bug component is WebUI
Comment 6 David Davis 2016-03-28 15:54:30 UTC 
Regarding minimum_object_size, the default in squid is 0 kB already but since pulp sets it explicitly (it needs to be 0 kB), I'm going to add it to our squid configuration.
