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 John Sefler 2011-08-10 14:29:18 UTC 
Created attachment 517630 [details]
error dialog that should state "Network error...."

Description of problem:
Problem 1: when rhsm.conf is configured with a bad proxy, most all sm calls will fail.  For example...

[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# subscription-manager facts --update
Network error, unable to connect to server.
 Please see /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more information.
[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# 

^^^ that is expected.  
However, if I click the button to update the facts in the gui, I am NOT getting the same error message.  Instead I get "[Errno 111] Connection refused".  See attached screenshot.  I would expect to see the same message that I get in the CLI.


Problem 2:
The error dialog that you see in the attached screenshot is not modal to the facts dialog (instead it is modal to the main subscription manager window) which means that you can click on the facts dialog thereby raising it above the error dialog thereby hiding the error dialog which has a grab on the input leaving you unable to click the Close button in the facts dialog.  The error dialog should really be modal to the main subscription manager window OR the top most child window currently being displayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# rpm -qa | grep subscription-manager
subscription-manager-firstboot-0.96.5-1.git.16.531d88e.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-0.96.5-1.git.16.531d88e.el6.x86_64

Additional info:

Question... the Network Error message appears to have recently changed.  A new-line character appears to have been placed between the sentences.

Network error, unable to connect to server.
 Please see /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more information.

^ THIS NEW LINE CHARACTER WAS RECENTLY ADDED.  WAS THIS DONE DELIBERATELY?  MY AUTOMATED TESTS TRIPPED UP ON THIS TODAY.

"Error updating system data" is properly displayed in gui when proxy is bad.

Verifying Version...
[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# rpm -qa | grep subscription-manager
subscription-manager-gnome-0.96.9-1.git.10.adab5e3.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-0.96.9-1.git.10.adab5e3.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-firstboot-0.96.9-1.git.10.adab5e3.el6.x86_64


With the same bad proxy settings as listed above...

[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# subscription-manager facts --update
Error updating system data, see /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more details.

and when I start the gui and click "update Facts" I now get the same error message.   See the screenshot.


Problem 1 is VERIFIED
