Katello 4.2.x repository synchronisation issues

John_Beranek · November 12, 2021, 9:03am

Problem:
Getting errors synchronising some repositories in Katello 4.2 (now 4.2.1), especially Oracle Linux 8 repositories
Expected outcome:
Repositories synchronised successfully
Foreman and Proxy versions:
foreman-3.0.1-1.el8.noarch
Foreman and Proxy plugin versions:
katello-4.2.1-1.el8.noarch
Distribution and version:
Oracle Linux 8.4
Other relevant data:
See Strange pulp3 error

Synchronising the Oracle Linux 8 “codeready-builder” repository I’m getting:

get() returned more than one UpdateRecord -- it returned 2!

Synchronising the Oracle Linux 8 “appstream” repository is failing in a different way - this morning’s daily sync is still running after 7 hours, with the error below:

Pulp task errorError message: the server returns an error
HTTP status code: 400
Response headers: {"date"=>"Fri, 12 Nov 2021 02:02:24 GMT", "server"=>"gunicorn", "content-type"=>"application/json", "vary"=>"Accept,Cookie", "allow"=>"GET, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, HEAD, OPTIONS", "x-frame-options"=>"SAMEORIGIN", "content-length"=>"62", "correlation-id"=>"0b72591f-6ea3-4b69-847a-15fa7c6b13f5", "access-control-expose-headers"=>"Correlation-ID", "via"=>"1.1 katello.example.com", "connection"=>"close"}

Generating a new CVV in a CV which contains these repositories also leads to the 2nd failure, as do promotions.

Hi @John_Beranek,

I have a couple of suggestions:

If it isn’t a pain, deleting the repo, running orphan cleanup, and then resyncing it should fix the problem.
Applying this patch to the installed pulp-rpm plugin may help: Advisory conflict resolution fixes. by goosemania · Pull Request #2150 · pulp/pulp_rpm · GitHub
If none of the above suite, then I’ll need to confer with the Pulp team about it.

Response body: {"publication":["Invalid hyperlink - Object does not exist."]}

We can start by taking a look at your Pulp distributions and publications to see if they do exist for your AppStream repo.

Go into the Foreman console and run the following:

::Katello::Repository.find(<id of appstream repo>).backend_service(SmartProxy.pulp_primary).distribution_reference

Take note of the path and the href.

Then, we’ll query the Pulp server:

curl https://`hostname`/pulp/api/v3/distributions/rpm/rpm/?base_path=<path goes here>   --cert /etc/pki/katello/certs/pulp-client.crt  --key /etc/pki/katello/private/pulp-client.key

Look at the returned distribution and its pulp_href. Does the pulp_href match the href from before? Also, is there a value for the publication field? If there is, note the publication field. I’ll refer to it as the appstream publication href.

Go back to the Foreman console and run the following:

::Katello::Repository.find(<id of appstream repo>).publication_href

Does that match the appstream publication href from before (if there was one)?

For all of the ‘appstream’ investigations, it looks to check out OK, Pulp’s ‘publication’ field matches the ‘publication_href’ in Katello.

As for deleting the ‘codeready-builder’ repository and recreating it - this is quite a pain as the repository is used in quite a few published CVs/CVVS, which are used by subscribed hosts - so all those would have to be deleted.

I will take a look at the Pulp patch.

Trouble with the pulp patch, seems to not apply to the currently released pulp_rpm in Katello 4.2.1:

I found a backport patch for Pulp 3.14: https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/pulp/pulp_rpm/pull/2152.patch

@John_Beranek can we see the Dynflow output for your failing sync task that caused {"publication":["Invalid hyperlink - Object does not exist."]} ? Seeing the input and output for the action that failed inside the Dynflow task would be especially great.

Interestingly, it seems to have a few different failure methods. The daily sync I posted above has this:

On a more positive note, after I applied the Pulp patch, I’ve just managed to sync both ‘appstream’ and ‘codeready-builder’ successfully.

Starting to think the 7.8GiB resident ‘rails’ process amongst the 24GiB of RAM used on the 30GiB RAM server account for some of the variation in results…

I’ll be taking a look into getting that patch into Katello officially.

John_Beranek:

Ah there it is then, I’ve seen all sorts of strange things pop up when the oom killer comes in.

Is there a particular process that seems to be using more RAM than before?

John_Beranek · November 16, 2021, 2:23pm

Not that I could put a finger on, no - I just know that I keep adding RAM to the server, and it keeps running out. A few daily repo syncs failed this morning[1], which corresponded to another OOM event.

Still have Oracle Linux 8 repository syncs intermittently failing during the daily sync, even we no corresponding OOM events.

John_Beranek · November 17, 2021, 9:21am

Hmm, the very recent release of Oracle Linux 8.5 (and corresponding busyness of yum.oracle.com) could have something to do with it - but some of the task errors don’t look very pleasant to an end-user, I must say.

John_Beranek · November 17, 2021, 9:31am

Getting quite a few of the Pulp task failures, but don’t know what to make of them - I think they’re just spotting a failed Pulp task, but show no evidence of why the task failed, as far as I can tell. They perhaps coincide with some of the sync failures, but I can’t be sure…

Pulp task error

sjansen · November 17, 2021, 11:08am

That is one of the reason i switched from OL to Alma, i know that OL has some extra stuff in their repos, but the size of these are way to excessive. With OL7/8 i had to run Katello with 32-40 GB to let it survive for around a week until i had to restart the services. This all went away after i switched to another dist for my servers.

Sorry not really helping for this issue, but maybe OL8 or better OL7 is a good repo for the developers to test for the worst expected scenario (repo wise)
