Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
When syncing repositories on the command line fails, asynchronous failures reported an ambiguous error: "undefined method `last' for nil:NilClass" A misconfiguration of the goferd daemon caused the undefined method error. This fix returns a succinct error when reporting failure in the long running sync process.

Description Lukas Zapletal 2012-02-14 10:06:19 UTC 
Description of problem:

When async operation fails, we parse errors coming from Pulp and if this fails we should report better error than:

undefined method `last' for nil:NilClass

We need to fix this to see root cause in our latest build.
Comment 2 Lukas Zapletal 2012-02-14 10:36:11 UTC 
Root cause in Pulp:

RequestTimeout: ('6bc4c83a-c059-454a-8851-2ac014eacbf2', 0)
Comment 3 Lukas Zapletal 2012-02-14 10:44:14 UTC 
Root cause was misconfiguration of goferd.

But fix correcting error message handling delivered to the master.

Comment 6 Lukas Zapletal 2012-03-22 11:56:25 UTC 
Yeah sorry:

1) Do some sync via cli, watch the progress bar
2) Bring the process down by stopping pulp before it is 100%
3) There should be no "undefined method" error in the log
4) The cli should receive some nice error like "Timeout" or "Error sync"
Comment 8 Garik Khachikyan 2012-03-22 12:31:10 UTC 
# REOPEN

Still having "undefined method" there:

checking exactly the same scenario as in: comment#6

This was already fixed during async tasks refactorings.

# VERIFIED

CLI provides better output now when doing pulp stop in the middle of some delayed job (for my case: repo sync).

it throws just:
---
Progress: [###                                               ] 6.4%Connection refused
