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 Lukas Zapletal 2019-10-18 14:00:23 UTC
Description of problem:
When booting grub2 over UEFI HTTP boot, any relative source or configfile statement will break URL and any subsequent fetches will fail. Example (root directory of a http server which contains grubx64.efi or core.efi):

grub2.cfg:
configfile /test.cfg
configfile test.cfg
configfile /test.cfg
sleep 60

test.cfg:
echo "Loaded test.cfg"

This should print:

Loaded test.cfg
Loaded test.cfg
Loaded test.cfg

However it prints:

Loaded test.cfg

It breaks the base URL somehow, any subsequent "configfile test.cfg" or even "linuxefi" and "initrdefi" will fail with an error.

This is blocking HTTP UEFI Boot feature for Satellite 6, we'd appreciate this to be fixed for both RHEL7 and 8.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grub2-2.02-0.80.el7.x86_64

Comment 2 Lukas Zapletal 2019-10-18 14:05:27 UTC
For the record, the error is: Failed to send request. status=0xf0

I'm closing this as a duplicate of Bug 1616395, please take a look to the scratch build shared there to test.
