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.

Check for 'undefined' variables . . .

Although we have been unable to replicate this issue, this fix should at least eliminate the following messages:


2011-01-28 19:08:33,539 INFO stderr=Use of uninitialized value $groupname in string ne at /usr/bin/pkicreate line 1183.

Comment 2 Ade Lee 2011-02-10 21:24:18 UTC 
So, whats going on here is that the database is being populated, and the VLV
indexes are being created. At this point, we wait for the VLV indexes to
complete before continuing.

We check as to whether the VLV indexes are complete by looking for a particular
entry and checking an attribute within that entry. If the entry does not exist,
then we sleep for 1 second and recheck.

In this case, its clear that something went wrong in the directory server to
prevent the index from being created. Unfortunately, there are no DS logs to
indicate what that might be.

So, there is insufficient information to reproduce this bug.  I will, however,
add a log message to this code to try to provide more information, should this
situation recur.
