Description Erik Logtenberg 2010-02-16 22:34:00 UTC
Description of problem:

I have a system registered to Spacewalk (0.8, nightly build). When I order a package upgrade, or a package verify, the system doesn't seem to do anything. I did install osad, following this howto:
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/OSADSetup
In spacewalk I can browse to the verify task that I ordered, and according to spacewalk the system did pick up the command and execute it, even though the system itself apparently did nothing. I can even click on the results, but that gives me a 500:

500 Error - Internal Server Error

You may have reached this page in one of the following ways:

   1. You've found an error in the site. Please report this error to your local administrator with details of how you received this message.

This is on the URL:
https://spacewalk/network/systems/details/history/verify_results.pxt?hid=9&sid=1000010000

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

Server-side I run spacewalk 0.8 nightly build on Fedora 12 x86_64.
Client-side it's also Fedora 12 x86_64, plus the rhn-client-tools 0.7.4.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Order whatever command, for example verify some package
2. Observe that client does nothing, but server thinks it was succesful
3. Click on verify results, observe a 500

Hey Erik, 

A couple of questions:

1.  The error when clicking on verify_results.pxt should be fixed now in commit 0e3bb3c8b4ab01d7a5221708f1c822e10514bc2f

2.  I wasn't able to reproduce the tasks not getting acted on correctly.  Currently running rhn-client-tools-0.8.12-1.fc12.x86_64


I'm going to go ahead and close the bug, but if you still see the issues with the latest nightly or 0.9 when it's released, feel free to reopen the bug.

Thanks!

-Justin
