Description of problem: I was investigating the request from http://post-office.corp.redhat.com/archives/rhn-satellite/2007-June/msg00079.html By grepping the SVN for 'rh_auth_token', I found it used in java/code/src/com/redhat/rhn/frontend/struts/RhnHelper.java: public static final String AUTH_COOKIE_NAME = "rh_auth_token"; java/code/src/com/redhat/rhn/frontend/struts/RequestContext.java: public static final String AUTH_COOKIE_NAME = "rh_auth_token"; But AUTH_COOKIE_NAME is not to be found anywhere else. Should we be able to remove it from the source code? The problem reported in that mailing-list post is no longer present on Satellite 5.0.0, so I assume we've removed the use of these but not the declaration. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): SVN trunk as of today (revision 117910). How reproducible: Looked at the source code. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Grepped the source AUTH_COOKIE_NAME. Actual results: In the Java code, it is only found in frontend/struts/RhnHelper.java and frontend/struts/RequestContext.java as declarations. It does not seem to be used anywhere. Expected results: Additional info:
Reassigning to myself. This got all three acks so I assume we want this change to happen. Committed to SVN, trunk, revision 132727.
Moving ON_QA, with: Satellite 5.1.0-14 Content now available in qa Channels. Satellite 5.1.0-14 ISOs are now available as rhn-satellite-5.1.0-14-redhat-linux-as-* @: http://barn.rhndev.redhat.com/satellite-isos/devel/satellite-5.1/
verified. TP Fetch the rhn-java-sat.src.rpm, install it, go to the SPECS directory, run rpm -bp ....spec, go to SOURCES directory, grep -r the source and see if that string is gone. adelton Preethi_afk: ^^^ would approximately be the way I'd do it. adelton Preethi_afk: s/rpm -bp/rpmbuild -bp/
