Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: 5/5 Prerequisites : Client : Rhel5.7 with following subscription manager client subscription-manager-firstboot-0.95.5.18-1.git.4.364aa10.el5 subscription-manager-0.95.5.18-1.git.4.364aa10.el5 subscription-manager-gnome-0.95.5.18-1.git.4.364aa10.el5 Steps to Reproduce : Execute following command on console [root@dhcp201-172 ~]# subscription-manager unsubscribe --serial lkjskshs Expected Result : Proper Message should display on console for invalid serial number Actual Result : [root@dhcp201-172 ~]# subscription-manager unsubscribe --serial lkjskshs --proxy 10.65.193.99:3128 'lkjskshs' is not a valid serial number -1
Moving to 6.2 since that's the next tracker and the bug needs to be fixed in the master branch, but this bug will only manifest on el5 (just fyi for developers).
Fix in subscription-manager.git master branch: cfbd5a361a8fd4210e8fb27fc9b317e8f547ee25 handle_exception method now checks if we're looking at a SystemExit exception, and if so skips all the processing / printing of the exception message. (as this is a pretty clear indication we already did some error handling and called sys.exit)
Moving the bug to verified as it result is as expected RPM used : subscription-manager-0.96.4-1.git.62.75efb0a.el6.x86_64 subscription-manager-firstboot-0.96.4-1.git.62.75efb0a.el6.x86_64 subscription-manager-gnome-0.96.4-1.git.62.75efb0a.el6.x86_64 Steps to reproduce : subscription-manager unsubscribe --serial lkjskshs Output: 'lkjskshs' is not a valid serial number
