Forman 1.1 case sensitive to hostname?

I've filed a bug for this in Redmine [1]. Please add any additional info or things I may have missed. Hopefully I'll have time tomorrow to write a fix and submit a pull request.

Tim, sorry your original post didn't get responded to in a timely fashion.

I’m having the same issue, Ubuntu 12.0.4 host, PostgreSQL backend. We see it for linux hosts as well (whose hostnames are have uppercase letters).

Hi,

I’m working with Foreman 1.1RC4 on CentOS 6.3 and a PostgreSQL 9.1.7 backend.

I’m noticing that our Windows agents will report with a hostname that is uppercase (which it is on the agent), which show up fine in the Foreman GUI and the PSQL DB.
The puppet certname in lowercase, of course.

When a user clicks on the hostname in the GUI, it throws a “Host not found” page. e.g. http://foreman:3000/hosts/1OFOURSERVERS.domain.tld
If you then add a ‘/facts’ in the above URL, it goes through successfully to the hosts’ facts page. This also works with ‘/audits’ and ‘/reports’.

I have also removed the uppercased host, renamed the Windows servers to a lowercase name and it all works okay. We just can’t do this manual process for each of our three hundred machines.

Can anyone help me with a workaround or help fix this bug?

Thanks,
Tim
