Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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 Lukáš Hellebrandt 2017-10-11 10:27:51 UTC 
Description of problem:
Running capsule-certs-generate with parameter --certs-tar set to "some~text~containing~tilde~symbol" causes the following error:

"""
Parameter certs-tar invalid: ~/whatever-certs.tar is not one of regexes matching /^(([a-zA-Z]:[\\\/Error during configuration, exiting
"""

Note the missing linebreak is actually present, it's not an error in copy-paste. The first part of the message is truncated so the regex is shown only partially or not at all (with long enough parameter value).

Also, the terminal text color keeps being set to red.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. # capsule-certs-generate --foreman-proxy-fqdn "<FQDN>" --certs-tar "~/whatever-certs.tar"

Actual results:
Error message shown incorrectly on one line, first part truncated, terminal red

Expected results:
Obviously - the whole message shown and original settings of terminal restored
Comment 1 Lukáš Hellebrandt 2017-10-11 11:52:51 UTC 
The fact that a tilde causes the error is bug 1500732.
Comment 3 Bryan Kearney 2018-11-01 14:44:38 UTC 
The Satellite Team is attempting to provide an accurate backlog of bugzilla requests which we feel will be resolved in the next few releases. We do not believe this bugzilla will meet that criteria, and have plans to close it out in 1 month. This is  not a reflection on the validity of the request, but a reflection of the many priorities for the product. If you have any concerns about this, feel free to contact Rich Jerrido or Bryan Kearney or your account team. If we do not hear from you, we will close this bug out. Thank you.
Comment 4 Bryan Kearney 2018-11-30 14:50:36 UTC 
Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please do not reopen. Instead, feel free to contact Rich Jerrido or Bryan Kearney. Thank you.
