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 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
