Description of problem: This was reported by a user on IRC. This is also happening a lot lately so thought I'd track it here. User was trying to delete his app (only app he had): reader-jmason.rhcloud.com Afterwards, he would get an error when trying to login to the web console with URL: https://openshift.redhat.com/app/login?redirectUrl=%2Fapp%2Fconsole Error: "We appear to be having technical difficulties" page. Note that application deletion may take a long time (longer than usual lately). We should catch errors and but continue on to the page, the same way "rhc domain show" will continue working.
Is there any additional info from this incident? Like what type of app, what carts were installed, if the deletion was via cli or web console? This is pretty tough to replicate with the current description.
Looking through the logs, it appears there was an error on the node when creating the reader app. It could be that the state was not entirely reverted and there was an attempt to delete a non-existent or partially-existent app.
Code changes have been made to ensure that pending_op for operation failures that are followed by failures in rollback are not deleted. Furthermore, deletion of an application/gear on the node has been made more resilient in the face of partially created gears.
Marking this resolved based on the above comment.
This is not reproducible on devenv_3297, marking as verified.
