Description Nikhil Kathole 2017-11-15 07:30:47 UTC
Description of problem: Argument -r REQ_FILE in katello-certs-check utility is not mandatory. Thus if -r argument is not passed while performing check, it throws some warning as readlink: missing operand.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sat 6.3 snap 24

# rpm -qa | grep katello-certs

How reproducible:always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. openssl genrsa -out rootCA.key 2048
2. openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key rootCA.key -sha256 -days 1024 -out rootCA.pem
3. openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout server.key -out server.csr
4. openssl x509 -req -in server.csr -CA rootCA.pem -CAkey rootCA.key -CAcreateserial -out server.valid.crt -days 100 -sha256
5. katello-certs-check -c server.valid.crt -k server.key -b rootCA.pem

Validation succeeded.

To install the Katello main server with the custom certificates, run:

    foreman-installer --scenario katello\
                      --certs-server-cert "/root/certs/server.valid.crt"\
                      --certs-server-cert-req ""\
                      --certs-server-key "/root/certs/server.key"\
                      --certs-server-ca-cert "/root/certs/rootCA.pem"

To update the certificates on a currently running Katello installation, run:

    foreman-installer --scenario katello\
                      --certs-server-cert "/root/certs/server.valid.crt"\
                      --certs-server-cert-req ""\
                      --certs-server-key "/root/certs/server.key"\
                      --certs-server-ca-cert "/root/certs/rootCA.pem"\
                      --certs-update-server --certs-update-server-ca

To use them inside a NEW $FOREMAN_PROXY, run this command:

    foreman-proxy-certs-generate --foreman-proxy-fqdn "$FOREMAN_PROXY"\
                                 --certs-tar  "~/$FOREMAN_PROXY-certs.tar"\
                                 --server-cert "/root/certs/server.valid.crt"\
                                 --server-cert-req ""\
                                 --server-key "/root/certs/server.key"\
                                 --server-ca-cert "/root/certs/rootCA.pem"\

To use them inside an EXISTING $FOREMAN_PROXY, run this command INSTEAD:

    foreman-proxy-certs-generate --foreman-proxy-fqdn "$FOREMAN_PROXY"\
                                 --certs-tar  "~/$FOREMAN_PROXY-certs.tar"\
                                 --server-cert "/root/certs/server.valid.crt"\
                                 --server-cert-req ""\
                                 --server-key "/root/certs/server.key"\
                                 --server-ca-cert "/root/certs/rootCA.pem"\
                                 --certs-update-server


Actual results: Check passed but it shows some warning 

readlink: missing operand
Try 'readlink --help' for more information.
