This section describes known issues with the Satellite 6.1 web user interface (web UI).
BZ 1180160: Web UI displays "can't convert nil into String" when manifest subscriptions have expired
Issue

If you navigate to ContentRed Hat Repositories and open a tree for a repository, you might see the following error message:

Exception:
TypeError: can't convert nil into String
This can occur if you have expired subscriptions in your manifest.
Workaround

To work around this issue, update your manifest. This issue will be addressed in a future release.

BZ 1115315: Content Search of product filters do not handle spaces correctly
Issue

On the Satellite Server's Content Search user interface, search strings with spaces do not return any results.

Workaround

To search for product names that contain spaces, either enclose the product name in quotes or escape the spaces. For example:

"Red Hat Enterprise Server"
or
Red\ Hat\ Enterprise\ Linux\
BZ 1232363: Puppet: "Import" dropdown runs off the side of the screen, is unreadable/discernible
Issue

If you navigate to ConfigurePuppet Classes and click Import, the labels in the drop-down list may be cut off at the edge of the browser's window, making it impossible to confirm in advance what is being selected. Resizing the browser's window has no effect on the problem.

Workaround

None at this time.

BZ 1225348: Can't remove NIC from compute profile
Issue

If you attempt to remove a network interface card (NIC) from a compute profile, it will fail, with no error message output.

Workaround

None at this time.

BZ 1193812: Override puppet configuration on host level does not work if specified on host group
Issue

When you assign a host to a host group which has a Puppet Certificate Authority and PuppetMaster specified, and remove these value from the host, you will find that the values are reinstated when you click Submit.

Workaround

Assign the host to a host group without a Puppet Certificate Authority and PuppetMaster specified.
