RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-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.

Description Martin Babinsky 2017-05-24 07:05:06 UTC
Description of problem:

Currently the code that upgrades/uninstall simple services (like ipa-otpd, ipa_memcached) assumes that the simple service in question is always fully installed and has a systemd service file available. This, however, is not always true (e.g. in containerized environments) and can cause problems during upgrades of ipa-server container (as reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1454719).

The service installers/uninstallers must be able to gracefuly handle these situations and additionally check whether the component in question really is available on the system for management

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

ipa-server 4.5.0-13.el7

Additional info:

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1454719 for a bug caused by this defect and a reproducer.

Comment 7 Nikhil Dehadrai 2017-06-07 11:25:19 UTC
ipa-server-version: ipa-server-4.5.0-15.el7.x86_64

Verified the bug on the basis of following observations:
1. Verified that when "/usr/lib/systemd/system/ipa_memcached.service" is removed and ipa-server is upgraded, then following warning message is removed during upgrade process:

warning: file /usr/lib/systemd/system/ipa_memcached.service: remove failed: No such file or directory

2. After upgrade process is complete no errors are observed, see below:

3. Verified the same for following upgrade paths:
- Rhel 7.3.z > 7.4
- Rhel 7.3 GA > 7.4
- Rhel 7.2.z > 7.4

Thus on the basis of above observations marking status of bug to "VERIFIED"
