Kickstart is truncated when retrieved via RHN Proxy by cobbler URL

Issue

  • Kickstart is truncated when retrieved via RHN Proxy by cobbler URL.

Using the cobbler ISO as an example, the kickstart line ks= is hard coded like so:

ks=http://<PROXY_FQDN>/cblr/svc/op/ks/profile/<COBBLER_PROFILE>

When the kickstart is retrieved through a RHN Proxy the file ends up being truncated at the end:

...
wget "http://<PROXY_FQDN>/cblr/svc/op/ks/profile/<COBBLER_PROFILE>" -O /root/cobbler.ks
wget "http://<PROXY_FQDN>/cblr/svc/op/trig/mode/post/profile/<COBBLER_PROFILE>" -O /dev/null
%en <--- truncated

Environment

  • Red Hat Satellite or Proxy 5.7
