RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Gavin Romig-Koch 2010-05-06 18:10:35 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #589712 +++

These crashes need to be turned into error messages.

As part of this, implement a no-query option to the report command, 
so that it's easy to test these cases.
Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2010-05-06 19:55:48 UTC 
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

fixed in fedorahosted src repo.
Comment 7 David Kutálek 2010-06-28 13:46:04 UTC 
Gavin,
please can you advice some way how to reproduce?
I found out TextIO is used as a fallback io, so I tried nohup but it still gives traceback. 
David

[root@timothy plugins-basic]# nohup report /tmp/dummy-report.txt 
nohup: ignoring input and appending output to `nohup.out'
[root@timothy plugins-basic]# cat ./nohup.out 


Where do you want to send this report:

Comment 9 Gavin Romig-Koch 2010-10-05 07:08:39 UTC 
This bz can only be tested by calling the library directly.  The following python script would crash before this bz was fixed.  It will/should not crash now.


test.py -------------------------------
#/usr/bin/python
import report
report.report(None,None)
---------------------------------------

The crash in comment #7 is a separate issue, and should be a separate bz.
Comment 10 David Kutálek 2010-10-05 09:26:25 UTC 
Ok, traceback from Comment #7 is reported as new Bug #591920.
Comment 11 David Kutálek 2010-10-05 09:27:43 UTC 
Sorry, bad bug number. Correct is Bug #640218.
Comment 13 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-10 21:29:10 UTC 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
