From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.17-14cl i686; en-US; 0.8.1) Gecko/20010326 After an update in up2date(to version v2.1.7), the program can't connect to the server because an "SSL_connect error". Stunnel was updated too. Stunnel to version 3.10-2. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.update up2date to version 2.1.7, build up2date-2.1.7-1 2.update stunnel to version 3.10, build stunnel-3.10-2 3.run up2date -p (or any argument that requires secure connection) Actual Results: Updating package profile... Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 455, in ? main() File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 350, in main up2date.updatePackageProfile() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date/up2date.py", line 702, in updatePackageProfile raise CommunicationError(e.args[0]) up2date.CommunicationError: Error communicating with server. The message was: SSL_connect error Expected Results: Should performed an update of my profile in the RHN server.
Is this error repeatable? Does it work if you aren't using stunnel?
when I say repeatable, I mean is it repeatable today? If it was a transient server side issue, it has probably been addressed. If not I need to probe deeper.
also, what version of python is installed?
The bug is repeatable any time. I thought was an server problem too, but no. The python packages are: python-devel-1.5.2-27 python-xmlrpc-1.2.1-1 python-1.5.2-27 the up2date program worked with the standard installation of RH 7 for alpha system. But in that time was impossible to update de files cause up2date couldn't retreive the files because a missing part of the rpm name (alpha). In that time an up2date update was already available and I updated the files. Since the update I get this error (SSL error) message.
This is indeed an issue for alphas. I am able to replicate it in the test lab and reported it to the openssh guys as an issue to take a look at. In my testing, I have found that all SSL activity on the alpha is doing this, so this is definitely not an up2date issue specifically.
Nalin, Cristian: can you look into the python/openssl combo on alpha, and determine what is going wrong?
Ah ha! broken code This was recently fixed (caser of memcpy() being used in a overlapping memory region) Nothing to see here anymore
