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.

Fixed In Version: ovirt-node-3.0.1-8.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
After installing the iso created by 'edit-node', the system was reporting an error when entering the 'plugins' page in the TUI. The cause of this was 'edit-node' didn't check whether or not the paths passed for the repository and RPMs were actually repository files and RPMs, so it would attempt to add arbitrary files to the image. These checks are now in place, so the image is built, and can be installed correctly.

Description wanghui 2013-08-06 06:34:40 UTC 
Created attachment 783206 [details]
the output of edit-node

Description of problem:
1. It should not generate a iso file when I set installation as an iso file like follows.
   #edit-node --install=dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso --repo=dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130725.0.iso
  
   Because the manpage of edit-node is not support the installation as a iso. The manpage of edit-node is as follows.
   --install=PACKAGE_NAME
              Installs a the specific package from a yum repo or specified rpm
              file, all file locations are valid.  Multiple  packages  can  be
              specified by comma delimited list (package1,package2)

2. After installed this iso which is generated by edit-node, it will report an error when enter plugins page.
   Error info: An error appreaed in the UI: IndexError('list index out of range',)
               Press ENTER to logout ...
               or enter 's' to drop to shell

3. There is also error in /etc/ovirt-plugins.d/ as follows.
   # cd /etc/ovirt-plugins.d/
   # ll
   total 12
   -rw-r--r--. 1 root root  77 2013-07-19 14:28 cim.minimize
   -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 296 2013-08-05 08:29 error: dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso: not an rpm package (or package manifest)?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130725.0.iso
ovirt-node-tools-3.0.0-6.1.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run command
  #edit-node --install=dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso --repo=dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130725.0.iso
2.Install the iso which is generated by the edit-node.

Actual results:
1. It generated "rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130725.dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso.0.iso". The output of edit-node is in attachment.
2. After installation the iso, it will report an error when enter plugins page in TUI.

Comment 6 wanghui 2014-01-13 06:30:33 UTC 
Test version:
rhevh-6.5-20140110.1.iso
ovirt-node-3.0.1-16.el6_5.noarch
ovirt-node-tools-3.0.1-16.el6_5.noarch

Test step:
1. Install plugin with the follow command.
   #edit-node --install=dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso --repo=dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130725.0.iso

Test result:
1. After step1, it reports an error as the follows.
   ERROR: Can't install /home/edit-node/dd-tg3-13179-el6_2-x86_64.iso. Not in RPM format

So this bug is fixed in rhevh-6.5-20140110.1.iso. Change the status from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
Comment 7 Charlie 2014-01-16 03:25:03 UTC 
Hiya, could you let me know what was causing the problem and how it was fixed for the doc text? Thanks.
Comment 8 Ryan Barry 2014-01-16 15:41:17 UTC 
edit-node didn't check whether or not the paths passed for the repository and RPMs were actually repository files and RPMs, so it would happily attempt to add arbitrary files to the image.

edit-node now checks that the filetype of input actually matches what's expected.
