Katello 3.0 (Saison) RC1 is now available for testing. This release is a
major version bump because it introduces some backwards incompatible
changes and the removal of all deprecations that existed through the 2.X
lifespan.
Your help is appreciated to ensure our GA release is solid, by either
installing
a new instance or upgrading a test server with this initial RC.
Upgrade report. This is a DEV instance that started as a Katello 2.0 box
and has been upgraded to various RC and GA along the way.
Some minor issues.
The 3.0RC repo URLs for the upgrade don't point to the right spots. I
got the correct locations from the Install section of the 3.0RC docs.
I had to upgrade foreman-release-scl to get the right repos defined
before trying a yum upgrade.
yum upgrade failed due to file conflict
between python-semantic-version-2.2.0-3.el7.noarch
and python-semantic_version-2.4.2-1.el7.noarch. I worked around it by
doing this
yum shell
remove python-semantic-version-2.2.0-3.el7.noarch
install python-semantic_version-2.4.2-1.el7.noarch
run

I forgot to merge an update for those URLs before announcing. We recently
changed over from "RHEL/7Server" and the use of releasever to 'el7" to
allow for more distributions especially with our client repositories.

Besides the already mentioned repo urls not being correct and the extra
scl update I had problems that httpd didn't start because of XSendFile.
It looks like there is no xsendfile.load generated in conf.d.
After manually doing that I got httpd started and could succesfully run
the last upgrade step.
Sorry, didn't use a snaphot otherwise I would have run it again to check
if it was my fault. I did follow the upgrade docs of Katello-3.0RC
Greetings,
Joop

Forget this - looks like the issues were only there when I had the
incorrect URLS in my kickstart and was trying to fix up manually. A second
kickstart install with the correct URLs has gone through clean.
