Since this issue was entered in bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

Setting Priority to High and proposing for FasTrack. I'm seeing this when doing yum update on the console or as error report from PackageKit in GNOME. It appers several times a day.

This is happening in the rhn plugin

I get the same report from my colleagues today. Everything against RHN Classic.

There is probably some error on hosted and proxy redirect user to some error page, which is on http. This should not happen. Neither the the error on hosted, nor the redirection to http.

Flipping to hosted team.
