Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: Use curl to query the Candlepin status API directly and via the API. From a consumer that is registered to the Satellite 6.2.0 GA server this looks as follows: [root@rhel6 ~]# curl -s --cert /etc/pki/consumer/cert.pem --key /etc/pki/consumer/key.pem -k -X GET https://sat-rhel7.example.com/rhsm/status -H "Content-Type:application/json" | python -m json.tool { "managerCapabilities": [ "cores", "ram", "instance_multiplier", "derived_product", "cert_v3", "guest_limit", "vcpu", "storage_band" ], "result": true, "rulesSource": "DEFAULT", "rulesVersion": "5.15.2", "standalone": true, "timeUTC": "2016-08-03T15:23:38.454Z", "version": "3.0.0.68" } [root@rhel6 ~]# curl -s --cert /etc/pki/consumer/cert.pem --key /etc/pki/consumer/key.pem -k -X GET https://sat-rhel7.example.com:8443/candlepin/status -H "Content-Type:application/json" | python -m json.tool { "managerCapabilities": [ "cores", "ram", "instance_multiplier", "derived_product", "cert_v3", "guest_limit", "vcpu", "storage_band" ], "release": "1", "result": true, "rulesSource": "DEFAULT", "rulesVersion": "5.15.2", "standalone": true, "timeUTC": "2016-08-03T15:24:06.137+0000", "version": "0.9.54.7" } Actual results: version field is "3.0.0.68" Expected results: version field should be "0.9.54.7" Additional info:
Hi Barnaby, is the incorrect version causing any troubles? (e.g. is it currently being used by other processes?)
The biggest issue is that because the 'release' field is being dropped entirely older versions of subscription-manager show a stack trace in the logs. Newer versions should be ok, but will present bad information which will lead to confusion for anyone debugging a problem.
