product_install:satellite6-upstream - out: /bin/bash: katello-installer: command not found

[omaciel]

@jhutar so it looks like katello was not installed and I wonder if we need to provide some other environmental values (Jenkins does all the for us automatically)? @elyezer does anything here stand out to you?

[elyezer]

@jhutar and @omaciel this is not automation-tools issue, upstream installer is a really black box thing. It have been failing some times recently on automation.

I recommending checking the repo enabled, also if is missing something that is actually a katello-deploy bug than automation-tools.

Also I recommend checking the installation logs to check for some missing dependency because katello-deploy script does not return a non-zero return code when it fails to run some command.

[jhutar]

OK, I take this back. Nothing has changed on my side and today this worked:

Done.
Disconnecting from <hostname>... done.

Error at the end, about installing puppet-foreman_scap_client is different issue I guess.

And one final question: Although there was error when installing that scap package, fab exitted with "0". Is that expected?

[jhutar]

To make myself clear - why I'm asking about that error code: I want to know if the exit code of the fab command reflect successfulness of the underlying action of if I should check for something else.

[elyezer]

That is just telling you that the scap client was not installed and as that is not a blocker fabric was asked to just warning instead of failing.

[sthirugn]

In addition to what @elyezer said: Look at https://github.com/SatelliteQE/automation-tools/blob/master/automation_tools/__init__.py#L432 and note warn_only=true. This is a minor post installation task for automation and we don't want the whole installation to be considered failed if this task failed, so we ask fabric to ignore errors using warn_only=true so it just prints the error as warning and continues to run other tasks.

[jhutar]

Makes perfect sense @elyezer and @sthirugn. Thanks.

Closing now as the issue was probably in the upstream installer.
