Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

dnf-plugin-subscription-manager-1.28.35-1.el8.x86_64


dnf remove insights-client

run firefox and open cockpit app

try to register a system and you will see 'A package insights-client will installed'

after you click on a 'Register' button you will see a message 'Checking installed software' with a rotating circle and red 'Oops' will appear on the top bar of the application.

The application gets frozen in this state.

I will attach js console.log and a piece of the source code the error has arisen from.

I *think* this issue could be what was fixed by
https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager-cockpit/pull/37
(only in subscription-manager-cockpit, fixed in 9.2)

If that's the case, you should not get the issue when doing the same steps in 9.2.

In addition to this, most likely we will need also
