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.
Candlepin does not support characters for activation key names other than letters, numbers, hyphen, and underscore.
Katello will need to adjust to this so that activation keys are properly named and can be used at registration.
Cole is the new Component owner for Activation Keys, assigning to him.
Cole, let me know if you have any questions on these or need help verifying them.
Was there a Katello/Satellite side fix to this as well? The linked PRs only seem to be for Candlepin.
Also, I tested this in Sat 6.7 snap 3 and I was able to create an activation key named ',.;?'. Shouldn't it have blocked me?
Failed in satellite 6.7 snap 3.
Katello let me create and update the activation key with special characters. However, subscription-manager is still unable to register with those characters.
[root@coleslocal ~]# subscription-manager register --org="Default_Organization" --activationkey=",.;?"
HTTP error (404 - Not Found): Couldn't find activation key ''
Brad, can you let us know if there are any Katello changes for this bug?
There haven't been any katello changes made for this bugzilla. If changes are needed, I'd propose we move this one to sat-backlog for resolution in a future release.
Cole,
Can you attach the output of the Satellite production.log capturing the 'register' scenario?
