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 Andrej Manduch 2017-06-13 23:30:11 UTC 
Description of problem:
When I tried to upgrade from RHEL6.9 to RHEL7.4 It will fail without error message describing what's wrong it will just print out Traceback.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/redhat-upgrade-tool", line 432, in <module>
    main(args)
  File "/usr/bin/redhat-upgrade-tool", line 254, in main
    if f.treeinfo.get('product', 'name') == 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux':
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 321, in get
    raise NoSectionError(section)
ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'product


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

[root@intel-hermosabeach-01 ~]# rpm -qa redhat-upgrade-tool
redhat-upgrade-tool-0.7.48-1.el6.noarch
[root@intel-hermosabeach-01 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.9 (Santiago)
[root@intel-hermosabeach-01 ~]# hostname 
intel-hermosabeach-01.khw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com
[root@intel-hermosabeach-01 ~]# md5sum RHEL-7.4-20170609.n.0-Server-x86_64-dvd1.iso 
e2103698b11728ff6984148b07e03564  RHEL-7.4-20170609.n.0-Server-x86_64-dvd1.iso

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
Use https://access.redhat.com/solutions/637583 upgrade guide as manual for RHEL6 > RHEL7 upgrade

Download newest RHEL7 nightly build:
wget http://download-node-02.eng.bos.redhat.com/nightly/RHEL-7.4-20170609.n.0/compose/Server/x86_64/iso/RHEL-7.4-20170609.n.0-Server-x86_64-dvd1.iso

run 
redhat-upgrade-tool --iso ./RHEL-7.4-20170609.n.0-Server-x86_64-boot.iso


And it will crash on this message:
preupg.risk.SLIGHT: Repo beaker-Server-SAPHANA is enabled.
preupg.risk.SLIGHT: Repo beaker-Server-SAP is enabled.
preupg.risk.SLIGHT: Repo beaker-Server-optional is enabled.

preupg.risk.SLIGHT: Enabled repo files for kickstart generation are stored in /root/preupgrade/kickstart/available-repos.

preupg.risk.SLIGHT: The 'export' commands will be removed from the /etc/sysconfig/sshd file.
Continue with the upgrade [Y/N]? y
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/redhat-upgrade-tool", line 432, in <module>
    main(args)
  File "/usr/bin/redhat-upgrade-tool", line 254, in main
    if f.treeinfo.get('product', 'name') == 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux':
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 321, in get
    raise NoSectionError(section)
ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'product'


Expected results:
Upgrade system or print out error message not Traceback.

Additional info:

I also tried to perform upgrade with using --network and pointing it out to remote repository, but it crashed with same traceback.
Comment 2 Michal Bocek 2017-06-16 10:17:02 UTC
