Description John Mazzitelli 2009-05-12 23:20:00 UTC
A Linux platform was reporting a package with architecture of "none". There is no "none" arch in RHQ_ARCHITECTURE so ContentManagerBean.mergeDiscoveredPackages was failing here:

                try {
                    packageArchitecture = (Architecture) architectureQuery.getSingleResult();
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("Could not load architecture for architecture name ["
                        + resourcePackage.getArchitectureName() + "] for package [" + resourcePackage.getName() + "]");
                }

for some reason, that runtime exception got swallowed somewhere else up the chain and this never got logged on server or agent.

We need to a) probably just skip this package and not inventory it but inventory the rest of the package in the report and b) do not go silent here, we need to log this.

Comment 1 John Mazzitelli 2009-05-13 06:09:20 UTC
This is getting swallowed because:

a) this is a async/guaranteed delivery API, so the agent side does a fire-n-forget
b) the server-side throwns a undeclared exception (no logging done in server-side SLSB, just the exception is thrown)
c) the only logging done when the exception is thrown is a DEBUG message in the comm layer

I'll change this code to log a WARN and keep processing the rest of the report... no need to throw away the entire content report because of one bad arch type

Comment 2 John Mazzitelli 2009-05-13 06:28:00 UTC
here's the stack where the error occurs - you can follow this to see where the exception gets swallowed

Comment 3 John Mazzitelli 2009-05-13 06:45:38 UTC
we now log a WARN but continue processing the rest of the report

Comment 4 John Mazzitelli 2009-07-27 15:56:33 UTC
I actually have no idea how to test this. This was something greg hit on his machine - I never saw it. But I guess the repo steps would be:

1) rpm install a package whose architecture name in the metadata is "none".
2) enable platform content discovery on the platform you just rpm installed the package with "none" architecture
3) check the server log to see the WARN message but also notice that all the rest of the packages installed on the box are viewable

Comment 5 Corey Welton 2009-08-14 19:42:46 UTC
QA Verified.

I'm going to go ahead and mark this as QA Verified -- packages which are returning "(none)" via the rpm query are few and far between, it seems -- gpg-pubkey* is all I found on RHEL and Fedora boxes.  That they don't appear in the results seems to be an ok result for now.  Other proposed changes (these below, or others) may be too invasive this late in the release.

A possible solution down the road might be to dynamically generate all arch types that exist on a system, rather than store a static list of them in the db.   Something like

rpm -qa --queryformat "%{ARCH}\n"|sort|uniq  

...would return a list of all arches that exist on any given system.  Alternately, we could continually populate any "arch" table with this data as more arches are discovered.

This would keep us from necessarily having to update the table with one-offs any time a new arch is discovered.

I don't think handling this as a noarch (see sub-bug) is the correct thing to do -- noarch means something specific, i.e., a package that is arch-agnostic.  I think if we were to file these rpms that return an arch as "(none)" from the rpm output as noarch, it might cause other issues down the road.  Will comment on sub-bug or create a new one later.
