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.

Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, running the firstboot utility with the "-r" option while the subscription-manager-firstboot utility was already installed caused the firstboot utility to terminate with a traceback; it also failed to display a message stating that the computer was already registered with Red Hat Network. This bug has been fixed, the firstboot utility now displays the warning message properly and no tracebacks are issued in the described scenario.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-04-05 12:03:27 UTC 
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

    693709: fix bug showing the "you are registered to rhn" dialog
    
    .__get_window was calling the subclass method, which was pointing
    at a window which isn't created yet in firstboot (createScreen
    creates it)
Comment 7 Adrian Likins 2011-04-13 19:40:14 UTC 
Incorrectly moved to modified (patch not pushed to rhel6 branch because of lack of blocker status)

Tested with release candidate of rhsm:

subscription-manager-0.95.14-1.git.4.11aa664.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-firstboot-0.95.14-1.git.4.11aa664.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-gnome-0.95.14-1.git.4.11aa664.el6.x86_64


firstboot -r now opens normally with the "you are registered to rhn" warning properly (see screenshot).

firstboot does not create any additional tracebacks or warning messages.

Marking this VERIFIED.
