Description of problem: The foreman-admin-email is not applied to the foreman setting 'administrator'. Instead the 'administator' setting defaults to "root@<domainname>". [crash] root@li-lc-1017:~# hammer -c/opt/hoici/etc/sat6/hammer-hoici.yaml settings list | grep administrator administrator | root.com | The default administrator email address [crash] root@li-lc-1017:~# grep admin_email /etc/foreman-installer/scenarios.d/satellite-answers.yaml admin_email: "root.hilti.com" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install with '--foreman-admin-email=blah' 2. 3. Actual results: Setting 'administrator' is still root@<domainname> Expected results: Setting 'administrator' is set to 'blah' Additional info: Alternative solution is to remove the 'administrator' setting and replace its use with the mail address from the admin user account instead.
Additional issue i noticed with an incorrect mail address: If you supply an invalid mail address, then the db-seed 04-admin.rb will fail and in WARNs the invalid mail addresses error is listed. Then after correcting the mail address the next run of satellite-installer will not apply it. And in the end also the admin account did not get a password set. A regular user is unable to recover from this without completely clean OS installation and then retry satellite installation again
