1372360 – Errata not visible by yum updateinfo on Red Hat Satellite 6.2 clients

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.

**********************************


Additional info:
- The updateinfo size seems pretty low i.e ".93 B". Probably it is not getting update on satellite and hence client not able to get errata information.

- yum check-update works fine.
- tried re-sync repo and republished content view
- tried tweaking release version and content view of content host profile
- tried regenerating metadata for repository manually

Comment 3 Justin Sherrill 2016-09-30 15:27:09 UTC

I am not able to reproduce this.  Do we have an internal reproducer?:

[root@sat-rhel7 ~]# yum updateinfo

Comment 4 Will D 2016-10-11 13:31:19 UTC

I was just about to open a case for this as I can reproduce it on RHEL 6 and RHEL7 systems

Comment 5 Will D 2016-10-11 13:44:00 UTC

Case 01718886 opened with sos and foreman-debug. If you need other data let me know (directly or indirectly).  This might be linked to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1377725 as well? 
I also opened a separate case  (01718886) for errata not appearing after a repo sync.

Comment 6 Pierre-Yves G. 2016-10-11 14:23:14 UTC

Same issue. Case #01718311 opened with sos and foreman-debug.

Comment 7 Justin Sherrill 2016-10-11 14:29:52 UTC

Would someone that is able to reproduce this be able to check the updateinfo.xml file in the RHEL repository that satellite is generating and upload that to this bz?

Comment 8 Pierre-Yves G. 2016-10-11 14:43:13 UTC

RHEL6 Server RPMs repo updateinfo file

Comment 9 Will D 2016-10-11 14:48:52 UTC

Justin
I'm thinking something must be wrong w/ the number of updateinfo.xml.gz files in this location?   Will attach one of the .gz's if you need it, but I don't see a link for updateinfo.xml.gz to one of these files.

Comment 10 Justin Sherrill 2016-10-11 14:59:19 UTC

Will, does the repomd.xml file reference any of those updateinfo.xml.bz files?

Comment 11 Will D 2016-10-11 15:03:13 UTC

it does

# grep updateinfo repomd.xml 
<data type="updateinfo"><location href="repodata/88807e10bbe0f9ec1041ade76a5c70204bbdbe70-updateinfo.xml.gz" /><timestamp>1476191501</timestamp><size>93</size><checksum type="sha1">88807e10bbe0f9ec1041ade76a5c70204bbdbe70</checksum><open-size>58</open-size><open-checksum type="sha1">9d65415ae7cc4f506ce1efc0a2d8a955d10c5ac1</open-checksum></data>

Here's the contents of that file

# cat 88807e10bbe0f9ec1041ade76a5c70204bbdbe70-updateinfo.xml

Updateinfo.xml is valid but has no data.

This is probably a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1383463

You can confirm this by looking at the mtime for the updateinfo file that is listed in repomd.xml, and compare it with the mtime of one of the other updateinfo files that appears to have the content you would expect.

You can run this command in the repodata directory to see the mtimes sorted:

stat -c '%y %n' *-updateinfo.xml.gz | sort
