How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register RHEL-8.9.0-20230718.23 against satellite6.14 snap 8.0:

[root@koza-3 ~]# subscription-manager register --username=admin --password=admin  --org=sca_org --environment=Library
Registering to: dell-per740-68-vm-07.lab.eng.pek2.redhat.com:443/rhsm
The system has been registered with ID: e6798835-4cf6-4472-a0f9-c4848bc6e5d8
The registered system name is: koza-3.4a2m.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com

[root@koza-3 ~]# ls /etc/pki/entitlement/
5262642170835786293-key.pem  5262642170835786293.pem

[root@koza-3 ~]# ls /etc/pki/consumer/
cert.pem  key.pem


2. Remove the consumer certs, and re-register with --force:

[root@koza-3 ~]# rm -rf /etc/pki/consumer/*

[root@koza-3 ~]# ls /etc/pki/consumer/

[root@koza-3 ~]# subscription-manager register --force --username=admin --password=admin  --org=sca_org --environment=Library
Registering to: dell-per740-68-vm-07.lab.eng.pek2.redhat.com:443/rhsm
Unit e6798835-4cf6-4472-a0f9-c4848bc6e5d8 has been deleted (HTTP error code 410: Gone)



3. Check the rhsm.log:

Comment 2 Leos Stejskal 2023-08-01 05:54:25 UTC

I think it's a valid issue, if the user is re-registering the host we should not care about previous certificates.
Can you please upload logs from the Satellite?

Comment 3 qianzhan 2023-08-01 08:05:51 UTC

Hi Leos, please check attachment 'sosreport-satellite614-2023-08-01-smhixfx.tar.xz'

Comment 5 Leos Stejskal 2023-08-02 08:06:34 UTC

From a quick look the error is coming from Candlepin:

Created redmine issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36674 from this bug

Comment 12 Jeremy Lenz 2023-08-11 19:35:46 UTC

Workaround is to run the registration again. It will succeed the second time.
