Steps to Recreate¶

1. Create a scenario which will cause an error during sync on a single package
2. Attempt a sync
3. Observe that the "Error" field is empty
4. View the task details via the API to see that the "error_details" field does contain the error message

mkdir zoolander
cd zoolander
wget https://davidd.fedorapeople.org/repos/zoo-lander/cat-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
wget https://davidd.fedorapeople.org/repos/zoo-lander/camel-0.1-1.noarch.rpm
wget https://davidd.fedorapeople.org/repos/zoo-lander/bear-4.1-1.noarch.rpm
createrepo .
chmod 777 *
sudo chown root bear-4.1-1.noarch.rpm
sudo chmod 000 bear-4.1-1.noarch.rpm 
pulp-admin rpm repo create --repo-id zoolander --feed file://`pwd`
pulp-admin rpm repo sync run --repo-id zoolander

Below is the pulp-admin output for the sync command. Notice that while it reports the package for which an individual package error occurred, it does not report the error message. It is left blank.

[vagrant@dev ~]$ pulp-admin rpm repo sync run --repo-id zoolander

By viewing the full progress report via the API with one of these commands

• phttp https://localhost/pulp/api/v2/tasks/

• pulp-admin -vv tasks details --task-id <<sync_task_id>>

We can see that an error message is indeed provided in the full report
