6.2. Bug Fixes
The following bugs have been fixed in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.3 that have a significant impact on users.
- Alternate Content Source package can now be created
-
Previously,
rhui-managerfailed to create an Alternate Content Source package. With this update, the problem is now fixed and you can successfully create an Alternate Content Source package. - Redundant RHUI code has now been removed
-
With this update, several parts of redundant code have been removed from RHUI. Most notably, the unused
entitlementargument in the custom repository creation has been removed. Additionally, the Atomic and OSTree functions have been removed because these features have been deprecated in RHUI 4. portvariable has been renamed toremote_port-
Previously, CDS and HAProxy management used a variable called
port. However,portis a reserved playbook keyword in Ansible. Consequently, Ansible printed warnings about the use of this variable. With this update, the variable has been renamed toremote_portwhich prevents the warnings. rhui-installernow returns the correct status when RHUA installation playbooks fails-
Previously, when the RHUA installation playbook failed,
rhui-installerexited with a status of0, which normally indicates success. With this update, the problem has been fixed, andrhui-installerexits with a status of1, indicating that the RHUA installation playbook has failed. - Proxy-enabled RHUI environments can now synchronize container images
- Previously, RHUI did not accept proxy server settings when adding container images. Consequently, RHUI was unable to synchronize container images if the proxy server configuration was required to access the container registries. With this update, RHUI now accepts proxy settings when they are configured with the container images. As a result, proxy-enabled RHUI environments can now synchronize container images.
- Misaligned text on the repository workflow screen is now fixed
- With this update, the misaligned text on the repository workflow screen in the rhui-manager text interface has been fixed.
6.3. Known Issues
This part describes known issues in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.3.
- Rerunning
rhui-installerresets custom container configuration -
Currently, the container configuration registry is managed by editing the
rhui-tools.confconfiguration file. However, rerunningrhui-installeroverwrites the configuration file based on the latest answers file or based on the command line parameters combined with the default template, which doesn’t contain any container registry configuration. Consequently, rerunningrhui-installerresets any custom changes to the container configuration registry. To work around this problem, save the current container configuration section from the/etc/rhui/rhui-tools.conffile and reapply the configuration to the newrhui-tools.conffile that is generated after rerunningrhui-installer.
