RHEL 8.5 doesn't work about convert2rhel HOT 7 CLOSED

Sorry for the inconvenience. Another, one-line workaround is to manually download the python3-cloud-what package to a folder from which convert2rhel will pick it up and install during the conversion:

wget -P /usr/share/convert2rhel/subscription-manager/ https://cdn-ubi.redhat.com/content/public/ubi/dist/ubi8/8/x86_64/baseos/os/Packages/p/python3-cloud-what-1.28.21-3.el8.x86_64.rpm

from convert2rhel.

Hello,

I am also experiencing the same issue . To overcome this one as @jordikroon described you have to install the following packages :

  yum install python3-requests
  rpm -ivh https://rpmfind.net/linux/centos/8-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/python3-cloud-what-1.28.21-3.el8.x86_64.rpm

from convert2rhel.

For reference - the bug has been filed in Bugzilla as well: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2022152

from convert2rhel.

Both Oracle Linux and CentOS Linux 8.5 has been publicly released. I highly recommend updating your system to this new minor version as after doing so this issue will not appear anymore - no workaround is needed then.

Also, for the conversion process to be supported by Red Hat, one needs to follow the system preparation steps as documented at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/converting_from_an_rpm-based_linux_distribution_to_rhel/index where one of the steps is to update the system to the latest minor version first.

I am experiencing the same issue. For now you can get around this issue by manually installing the python3-cloud-what rpm:

from convert2rhel.

For reference, you could also workaround this bug with

yum install subscription-manager ( from centos repos)
convert2rhel --username xxx--password xxx--pool xxx--keep-rhsm
