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 Alexander Todorov 2011-10-26 15:49:39 UTC 
Description of problem:

During rhn_register form the command line it fails with this :


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/rhn_register", line 76, in <module>
    app.run()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rhncli.py", line 74, in run
    sys.exit(self.main() or 0)
  File "/usr/sbin/rhn_register", line 58, in main
    ui.main()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/tui.py", line 1272, in main
    tui.run()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/tui.py", line 1220, in run
    win = self.windows[index](self.screen, self)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/tui.py", line 678, in __init__
    hardware_text += hw['ipaddr'] + "  "
<type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'str'



I suspect this is due to my computer having issues with network connectivity. It failed 2 times, then I was able to get past the hardware info screen (but it failed to connect to RHN) and on the next run it failed again with this traceback.

This is on a freshly installed 6.1 Workstation system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhn-setup-1.0.0-61.el6.noarch

Setting devel ack -- fix is in Spacewalk master, e13f9db192792fe9501b884c5a595cccc887ede6.
Comment 2 Jan Pazdziora 2011-11-24 14:55:22 UTC 
For QA: this should likely happen if the client is IPv6-only machine.
Comment 3 Miroslav Suchý 2012-01-09 17:25:27 UTC 
This will be fixed as side effect of bug 767679.
Leaving for QA to test.
