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.

Red Hat Bugzilla 1171841 0 high CLOSED ProxyAPI::ProxyException: ERF12-2749 [ProxyAPI::ProxyException] 2021-02-22 00:41:40 UTC

Description Craig Donnelly 2016-07-21 14:06:10 UTC 
Description of problem:
A run of capsule-installer where you provide an updated certs-tar file that has correct custom certs inside will not properly clean up previous custom certs that had issues/were incorrect.

Ex. Ran capsule-installer with certs signed by the wrong CA, then attempting to correct.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.1.9

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run capsule-installer with a certs-tar containing custom certs signed by the wrong CA compared to the Satellite. (This will fail with 422, etc..)
2. Regenerate the certs-tar with proper certs signed by same CA.
3. Run capsule-installer with the new certs-tar.

Actual results:
Install still fails.

Expected results:
Install should succeed with new certs.

Additional info:
I have not been able to narrow down the exact cause, but the workaround to this issue is to remove all files inside the following folders for a successful install:

1. /root/ssl-build
2. /etc/pki/katello/*
3. /etc/pki/katello-certs-tools/*
Comment 2 Bryan Kearney 2018-09-04 18:02:18 UTC 
Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please feel free to contact Rich Jerrido or Bryan Kearney. Thank you.
