Description Deepu K S 2016-09-09 06:22:41 EDT
Description of problem:
abrt-cli report fails to report vmcore problem directories. The cause appears to be since backtrace file is empty.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2
abrt-2.1.11-35.el7.x86_64
abrt-addon-vmcore-2.1.11-35.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
# abrt-cli report /var/spool/abrt/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01:05:49
Can't find a meaningful backtrace for hashing in '.'
('analyze_VMcore' exited with 1)

# abrt-cli report /var/spool/abrt/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01\:05\:49
Can't find a meaningful backtrace for hashing in '.'
('analyze_VMcore' exited with 1)

# abrt-cli report /var/spool/abrt/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01\:05\:49/
Can't chown '/var/spool/abrt/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01:05:49/': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.problems.InvalidProblemDir: '/var/spool/abrt/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01:05:49/' is not a valid problem directory
Can't take ownership of '/var/spool/abrt/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01:05:49/'

Actual results:
# abrt-cli report /var/spool/abrt/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01:05:49

The vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01.tar.gz file is uploaded at
http://10.65.5.157/files/vmcore-127.0.0.1-2016-09-08-01.tar.gz

Expected results:
Successfull abrt reporting.

I experience the same behaviour. Also present on RHEL 7.3 (most recent patches as of November, 14).

I reported this initially in case number 01734705, but following it here now.
