Description of problem: Although I suspect a valid orgKey cannot contain spaces (is this true?), the following attempt to register with an orgKey containing a space should still throw a RestlibException instead of a NetworkException... This case is blocked as expected... # subscription-manager register --username=testuser1 --password=password --org="foo_bar" Organization/Owner foo_bar does not exist. This case is blocked as not expected... # subscription-manager register --username=testuser1 --password=password --org="foo bar" Network error. Please check the connection details, or see /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more information. ^^^^ EXPECTED RESULT TO BE: Organization/Owner foo bar does not exist. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # rpm -q subscription-manager subscription-manager-0.96.7-1.git.10.586c3c4.el6.x86_64 [root@jsefler-onprem-62candlepin proxy]# git show-ref | grep master 517e1deb46bc6365da35ff12944815208eedb9d6 refs/heads/master 517e1deb46bc6365da35ff12944815208eedb9d6 refs/remotes/origin/master How reproducible:
I suspect the fix for this is to url encode the orgKey when calling the candlepin api. My guess is that the api path is getting assembled with the requested orgkey "foo bar" which creates an invalid http request when there is a space in the value.
