Cheers,
When I schedule a machine to start, then do rhn_check -vvv on
the client side I get the following errors:
D: handle_action {'action': "<?xml

Hello,
Do lots more -vs:
rhn_check -vvvvvvvvvvvv
to see if you can get an error to be printed on the console other than
just 'Fatal error'
Or if you feel up to it, use a python debugger. (Note, I am not a
python programmer nor have I ever debugged one before, so there is very
likely a better way to do this.) I had to find it first:
# rpm -ql python | grep pdb
...
/usr/lib64/python2.4/pdb.py
...
# python /usr/lib64/python2.4/pdb.py /usr/sbin/rhn_check -vvvvvvvvvvvv
> /usr/sbin/rhn_check(13)?()
-> import os
(Pdb)
Then:
Type 'n' (for next) 15-20 times until you see '-> cli.run()'
Then type 's' (for step [into])
Again type 'n' around 4 times until '-> sys.exit(self.main() or 0)'
Now 's' again
Then 'n' until '-> CheckCli.__run_local_actions()' (or maybe it's: '->
self.__run_remote_actions()' ?) etc, etc. 's'tep into interesting
functions and jump 'n'ext over uninteresting ones.
(The basic idea is to start pdb, and 'n' until you accidentally go over
the function you want to trace - then restart pdb and 's' into it, then
'n' again until you go over the function you are interested in... etc)
If you accidentally 's'tep into an uninteresting function, try 'r'eturn.
Eventually you'll start seeing some output from rhn_check:
> /usr/sbin/rhn_check(65)main()
-> CheckCli.__run_local_actions()
(Pdb) n (<--- should have done a 's' here to step into it)

You might have to run the debugger a few times to track down the
functions you need to step into.
Here's a site that explains a little more:
