https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299664 Summary: While upgrade: add-on dialog doesn't accept IP instead of servername Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- I just tried to upgrade my system to 10.3b1. I activated the checkbox to include add-on media, choose type "HTTP" and entered servername "12.12.80.1" and directory "/extra/". The result was an error message (german) telling me about an invalid servername: Ein gültiger Domain-Name besteht aus Komponenten, die durch Punkte getrennt werden. Jede Komponente enthält Buchstaben, Ziffern und Bindestriche. [...] english (translated back): A valid domain name consists of components, separated by dots. Each component contains letters, numbers and hyphens. I guess there's a regex for checking this - which unfortunately doesn't accept IP addresses. I don't attach the y2logs for now because the bug should be obvious. If you really need them, just ask - or try yourself, this bug is probably reproducable in the running system as well. Workaround: cat /etc/hosts > /tmp/hosts echo "10.12.80.1 server" >> /tmp/hosts ln -sf /tmp/hosts /etc/hosts -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
