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.

Satellite-escape-error.png screenshot

Description of problem:
When editing a smart class parameter's value (using the 'edit host' page), escape backslash (\) and CRLF (\r\n) control characters are shown (like preventing the expansion) for all the data entered on that value field. (see attached Satellite-escape-error.png screenshot)

On the Smart Class page, on the 'specify matchers' section, the values are shown correctly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
- satellite-6.2.11-2.0.el7sat.noarch
- puppet-server-3.8.6-2.el7sat.noarch

How reproducible: 1000%
To reproduce the error, edit a host, change puppet environment and check any multiline parameters values.

Apparently this behavior occurs when changing the parameter type to an array or yaml type. 

Actual results:
All values are escaped with \ for " and \r\n where you have CRLF characters.

Expected results:
All the values should be available to be edited without any \ escape character and/or \r\n

Verified - Puppet Parameter without special char in Host

Verified!

@ Satellite 6.4 snap 20


Steps:
1. Override puppet class parameter with array type and array value.
2. Assigned puppet class to host.
3. Attempt to view and edit the array type class parameter in host.

Observation:

The puppet parameter is shown without any special chars as mentioned in Description of this bug.
