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 Peter Ondrejka 2021-02-01 16:34:31 UTC 
Description of problem:

Run global registration curl command on FIPS-enabled RHEL8 host. The process fails on katello-ca-consumer installation step with:

Running transaction test
Error: Transaction test error:
  package katello-ca-consumer-hostname.redhat.com-1.0-1.noarch does not verify: no digest

This has been described before for RHEL8 FIPS, see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/4460971

The suggested workaround from the kcs is using "rpm -ivh --nodigest --nofiledigest" but I'm not sure if we even want to handle the issue within the template.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.9 snap 11

How reproducible:
always

Actual results:
described above

Expected results:
To be establised. Probably some logic in the template to trigger a workaround or at least a user warning and link to the kcs. Alternatively, we could find a way to rebuild  katello-ca-consumer to avoid digest-check.

Additional info:
Non-FIPS RHEL8 works as expected
Comment 1 Marek Hulan 2021-02-02 08:18:14 UTC 
I think for 6.9 we should extend the KCS with the note about the registration and the fact it fails with this error. We can also add instructions how to modify the template. That would be

1) clone the Global Registration template, call it e.g. Global Registration FIPS
2) change the line "yum localinstall $CONSUMER_RPM -y" to "rpm -ivh --nodigest --nofiledigest $CONSUMER_RPM" (please test before publish, I don't have the env at hand)
3) start using this template by selecting it at Settings -> Provisioning -> Default Global registration template, select the "Global Registration FIPS"

The global template can't be tweaked per OS. We could easily detect this by checking

> sysctl crypto.fips_enabled

if it returns 1, it means it's enabled and we should use the rpm command, otherwise we can use yum.

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/31992 has been resolved.
