Description Akshay Kapse 2023-12-27 02:59:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
- Errata tile in Host's Overview page on Satellite Web UI for RHEL 6 is blank with "No installed packages and/or enabled repositories have been reported by subscription-manager."

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
- 6.15

How reproducible:
- Easily

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register RHEL 6 host.
2. Check Host Overview tab for Errata tile.
3. Check enabled repositories:
# yum repolist
repo id                                       repo name                                                                  status
rhel-6-server-els-rpms                        Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Server - Extended Life Cycle Support (RPMs)     21,451
rhel-6-server-els-satellite-client-6-rpms     Red Hat Satellite Client 6 (for RHEL 6 Server - ELS) (RPMs)                    20
repolist: 21,471


Try restarting services:
# service rhsmcertd restart
Stopping rhsmcertd...                                      [  OK  ]
Starting rhsmcertd...                                      [  OK  ]
# subscription-manager refresh
1 local certificate has been deleted.
All local data refreshed

Still Highlighted 'Enable repository sets'.

Actual results:
- 'No installed packages and/or enabled repositories have been reported by subscription-manager.'
Highlighted 'Enable repository sets'

Expected results:
- Should show correct information as for other RHEL releases.

This looks like Satellite isn't getting package profile uploads from the host. I would assume that in addition to Errata, the Packages tab is also blank.

Does installing katello-host-tools on the host fix it?

Failing that, is it possible to upgrade subscription-manager on the host?
Comment 4 Akshay Kapse 2024-01-03 01:37:06 UTC 
Hello,

Package katello-host-tools is installed on the host but still there is no reporting.

I can see details in 'Packages' tab.
If clicked on tab 'Repository Sets' then it shows enabled repositories too but on 'Errata' tile it says 'Enable Repository Sets'
and 'Errata' tab is also empty.
Comment 5 Jeremy Lenz 2024-01-03 14:38:33 UTC 
If Satellite knew that katello-host-tools is installed, the error message should be "No installed packages and/or enabled repositories have been reported by katello-host-tools." Seems like we're having problems uploading the enabled repositories and/or installed package list.

What is the result of running 'katello-enabled-repos-upload --force' or 'katello-package-upload --force' ?

Is the issue only with a single host, or with all rhel6 hosts?
Comment 8 Ian Ballou 2024-01-19 22:54:08 UTC 
katello-enabled-repos-upload is not needed to get the package profile pushed to Satellite -- it is done by subscription-manager when a yum command (like install) is run. You'll see the issue go away if you `yum install` something.

Once I installed some package, all of the errata were correctly reported on my RHEL 6 client.

On top of that, I was able to enable the RHEL 6 repositories via the UI.

---

I was able to run `katello-enabled-repos-upload --force` once I did the following:


yum install python-setuptools


I suppose the fix here would be to make python-setuptools a requirement of katello-host-tools for EL6 only.

Patrick, what would it take to get python-setuptools added as a dependency for EL6 katello-host-tools? Is that reasonably possible?

Otherwise we can mark this as a documentation issue for EL6.
Comment 9 Patrick Creech 2024-01-23 15:59:09 UTC 
The technical aspect of updating, it shouldn't be difficult to add a requirement on that in the spec file.  Someone will need to update the katello-host-tools spec upstream so we can ingest it properly.

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/37106 has been resolved.

rhel-6-server-els-rpms
rhel-6-server-els-satellite-client-6-rpm


Steps performed:
---------------
1. Register RHEL 6 Host
2. Install katello-host-tools package on client
# yum install katello-host-tools
# katello-enabled-repos-upload --force

3. Check enabled repositories:
# yum repolist
rhel-6-server-els-satellite-client-6-rpms              Red Hat Satellite Client 6 (for RHEL 6 Server - ELS) (RPMs)
rhel-6-server-extras-rpms                              Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Server - Extras (RPMs)
