Puppet / PUP-10484 Unregistered yum subscription-manager confuses yum package provider Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: PUP 6.14.0 Assignee: Unassigned Components: Types and Providers Created: 2020/05/01 5:11 AM Environment: Somehow the subscription-manager.conf appeared in my system as I was setting up docker and docker-compose. It was not until later that I realized it broke puppet's package provider. Priority: Normal Reporter: Kevin Reeuwijk If the yum subscription-manager is enabled but not registered with an entitlement server, a warning will show in every output of the yum command:   This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use subscription-manager to register.  This confuses the yum package provider, causing Package resources to no longer be able to update packages. Steps to repro: Install CentOS 7 Create /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/subscription-manager.conf Set contents of the above .conf file to: [main] enabled=1 Run yum check-update and notice the warning Now try to update a yum package using puppet: puppet resource package <name> ensure=latest You'll notice the package doesn't get updated Go back to the .conf file and set enabled=0 Retry updating the yum package using puppet and notice it now works.

Re: Unregistered yum subscription-manager confuses yum package provider Kevin Reeuwijk I think this is a dup of PUP-10432. Could you try the just released 6.15.0 puppet-agent and see if that resolves the issue? If so, please close this as a dup.
