Random API task failing #2

Closed DarkMatter68 closed 4 years ago

DarkMatter68 commented 4 years ago

There is a bug with PULP which (very rarely) causes a task to fail in state: paused/error with: "PLP0000: Pulp exception occurred: PulpExecutionException"

This is a known issue on Red Hat Satellite 6 and has the bugzilla:-

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1743776

As of the time of creating this issue there has been NO progress with the bugzilla since August 2019.

The failed task can be 'resumed' in the Satellite GUI so a mechanism will be needed to attempt a 'resume' if the number of _check_task sub-task retries is reached.

POST /foreman_tasks/api/tasks/bulk_resume

and use the 'task_ids' option to only resume the specific task.

UPDATE: I have not seen the issue happen again in my environment so I may soon delete/remove this 'issue'.

FYI: I am classifying this as very low priority.

Closing this 'issue' as it has never occurred again since January 2020.

I do not see the need to alter the code for something that does not appear to happen ever again :)
