Description Jan Hutař 2016-11-01 13:53:44 UTC 
Description of problem:
In non-interactive mode when populating config channel and providing wrong credentials, installer hangs. It is because after first pass through while loop, RHN_USER and RHN_PASSWORD variables are unset and rhncfg-manager then asks for a new ones but that never happens (in non interactive mode).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.7.0


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ask Proxy installer to populate config channel and provide wrong credentials. Also make sure rhncfg-manager tool does not have recent auth cache available


Actual results:
Installer hangs, waiting for input


Expected results:
In this case (non-interactive mode, wrong RHN credentials), installer should fail with some error message.
