Candlepin: Unable to extract export archive

Dear,

We are trying to import our RHEL licences into Foreman, but the import always fails with an ‘Unable to extract export archive’ error.
However, on the server itself we can open the zip file using ‘unzip’, so the archive is not corrupt.
Is there something extra we need to install?

The full trace:

Action:
Actions::Candlepin::Owner::Import

Input:
{"label"=>"Default_Organization",
 "path"=>"/usr/share/foreman/tmp/import_4f56b9a07dca2b65fc04.zip",

Output:

@Jonathon_Turel any ideas on where to look further for this issue?

Two things to try:

  • re-download the manifest from the Red Hat Customer Portal
  • try uploading the manifest with a different browser

If that does not work please message me privately your username for the Red Hat Customer Portal and I can take a look into the account.

Hello @Jonathon_Turel, @John_Mitsch

Thank you for the help, trying it in another browser did work. I’ll explain our setup shortly, maybe it can help understand what is going wrong, and it can be fixed in a future version.

  • Our foreman is behind a socks5 proxy, opened via an ssh tunnel
  • NOT WORKING: MS Windows 2010 + Chrome via proxyomega
  • WORKING: Fedora 31 + Firefox 32 via proxyomega

For us this works now. But I can image some people would need Windows and Chrome support.

Bert

Glad you got it working!

Without digging into it I’m leaning toward an assumption that windows 2010 is the culprit. I use Chrome on a regular basis to upload and manage manifests and haven’t seen / heard of this problem until your report.

I am running into this issue, too, but when trying to Refresh my existing (already imported) manifest.

Never mind. My issue is with “import”, not “extract”.
