Hello, I have a problem with configuration channels. I configured a channel with two files and it worked until last upgrade to SpaceWalk 1.0. Now I get the following traceback. I think the problem is caused when the server schelude a file comparison to the client. The client excutes the script and it returns a message in local language. In my case, at position 435, the script finds "ú" (0xFA) so it aborts with error. I found a workaround: export LANGUAGE, LANG or similar variable with English before executing rhn_check, but I'll have to modify several systems. ¿Any idea to solve the problem? ==================================================================== Exception reported from spacewalk Time: Thu May 13 01:47:09 2010 Exception type exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError Exception while handling function queue.submit Request object information: URI: /XMLRPC Remote Host: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Server Name: localhost.localdomain:0 Headers passed in: Accept-Encoding: identity Content-Length: 10244 Host: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX content-type: text/xml user-agent: <a href="http://rhn.rpclib.py/$Revision">rhn.rpclib.py/$Revision</a>: 190936 $ x-client-version: 1 x-info: RPC Processor (C) Red Hat, Inc (version 191735) x-rhn-client-capability: packages.verifyAll(1)=1,packages.verify(1)=1,packages.extended_profile(2)=1,configfiles.base64_enc(1)=1,reboot.reboot(1)=1,configfiles.deploy(1)=1,caneatCheese(1)=1,packages.rollBack(1)=1,configfiles.mtime_upload(1)=1,configfiles.diff(1)=1,packages.update(2)=2,script.run(1)=1,configfiles.upload(1)=1,packages.runTransaction(1)=1,packages.verifyAll(1)=1,packages.verify(1)=1,packages.extended_profile(2)=1,configfiles.base64_enc(1)=1,reboot.reboot(1)=1,configfiles.deploy(1)=1,caneatCheese(1)=1,packages.rollBack(1)=1,configfiles.mtime_upload(1)=1,configfiles.diff(1)=1,packages.update(2)=2,script.run(1)=1,configfiles.upload(1)=1,packages.runTransaction(1)=1 x-rhn-transport-capability: follow-redirects=3 x-transport-info: Extended Capabilities Transport (C) Red Hat, Inc (version 190936) x-up2date-version: 0.8.12-1.el5 Extra information about this error: Response sent back to the caller: While running 'queue.submit': caught exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError : 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfa' in position 435: ordinal not in range(128) Exception Handler Information Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/rhn/server/apacheRequest.py", line 120, in call_function response = apply(func, params) File "/usr/share/rhn/server/handlers/xmlrpc/queue.py", line 424, in submit action_type=action_type) File "/usr/share/rhn/server/handlers/xmlrpc/queue.py", line 474, in process_extra_data result = method(self.server_id, action_id, data=data) File "/usr/share/rhn/server/action_extra_data/configfiles.py", line 154, in diff _process_diffs(server_id, action_id, diffs) File "/usr/share/rhn/server/action_extra_data/configfiles.py", line 239, in _process_diffs _add_result(action_config_revision_id, diff) File "/usr/share/rhn/server/action_extra_data/configfiles.py", line 291, in _add_result result.write(diff) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfa' in position 435: ordinal not in range(128) Local variables by frame Frame _add_result in /usr/share/rhn/server/action_extra_data/configfiles.py at line 291 h = <type 'instance'> <__builtin__.OracleCursor on <cx_Oracle.Connection to spacewalk@XE>> diff = <type 'unicode'> <ERROR WHILE PRINTING VALUE> result = <type 'cx_Oracle.LOB'> action_config_revision_id = <type 'int'> 195 row = <type 'dict'> {'result': <cx_Oracle.LOB object at 0x2b980cc262d0>} Frame _process_diffs in /usr/share/rhn/server/action_extra_data/configfiles.py at line 239 diffs = <type 'dict'> {' . . . . . ====================================================================
