Doc Text:
Cause: Attempting to synchronize a Kickstart repository to a Satellite 6.9 Capsule (running Pulp 2) fails with an importer error. Consequence: Synchronization of kickstart repository to Satellite 6.9 Capsule fails. Workaround (if any): 1. Set the Download Policy of the kickstart repository to 'Immediate' 2. Synchronize the repository at the Satellite 3. Synchronize the environment containing the repository to the Capsule. If the repository is in a non-Library environment, the content view that it is a member of must be published and promoted to that environment. Result: The synchronization of the Satellite 6.9 capsule will be successful.

Description Vladimír Sedmík 2021-09-15 08:13:16 UTC 
Description of problem:
Sync of a Kickstart repo to the N-1 capsule (pulp3 -> pulp2) fails with an importer error.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.10.0 snap 18


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a blank 6.10 Satellite with registered 6.9 Capsule with immediate policy (Satellite was upgraded from 6.9)
2. Sync a KS repo to the SAT (I used 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Server Kickstart x86_64 7.9' and later retried with 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS Kickstart 8.4')
3. Create an LCE, assign the Capsule to the LCE
4. Create a CV with the KS repo, publish and promote it to the LCE


Actual results:
Capsule is being synced with the KS repo but the task fails with error
'PLP0000: Importer indicated a failed response'


Expected results:
Successful sync


Additional information:
There is a workaround: Set the immediate download policy to the Kickstart repo, resync it and then resync the Capsule.
Comment 2 Brad Buckingham 2021-09-15 17:28:19 UTC 
Justin,

Based upon the description, should this be proposed for Satellite 6.9.z or 6.10?

I am assuming 6.9.z as it appears the error is on the Capsule (running 6.9).

Thanks!

I'm not sure we know enough about whether this is a problem with the 6.10 Satellite server or the 6.9 capsule server.  The error was thrown on the capsule server, but that may not be where the fix (if there is one) ends up.  I think the pulp team needs to investigate to figure that out.
Comment 4 Daniel Alley 2021-09-24 15:39:25 UTC 
I suspect this is the same issue as https://pulp.plan.io/issues/9213

Which was fixed by pulpcore 3.14.6, released Sept 2, but not in the latest snaps yet.

The Pulp upstream bug status is at CLOSED - CURRENTRELEASE. Updating the external tracker on this bug.

Verified on 6.10.0 snap 21 with python3-pulpcore-3.14.7-1.el7pc.noarch - successfully synced rhel-7-server-kickstart, rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-kickstart and rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-kickstart to the 6.9.6 capsule
