Resolution

  • Refer to the Diagnostic Steps section of the article to confirm:

    • Whether postgresql and ruby module streams are enabled or not ( expected is that they won't be enabled ).
    • If found enabled, whether the expected version of the same is enabled or not.

  • If any discrepancy has been found, then execute the following commands to reset the applicable module streams:

    # dnf module reset postgresql
# dnf module reset ruby

and then enable the satellite:el8 module if you are installing Red Hat Satellite 6.11 through 6.14:

# dnf module enable satellite:el8 postgresql:12 ruby:2.7

or the satellite-capsule:el8 module if you are installing Red Hat Capsule 6.11 through 6.14:

# dnf module enable satellite-capsule:el8 postgresql:12 ruby:2.7

  • If Problem *: conflicting requests has been found for pki-core, then execute the following commands to reset the applicable module streams and then enable pki-core module:

     # dnf module reset pki-core
 # dnf module enable pki-core

Root Cause

  • The current state of the ruby and postgresql module streams raises conflict and prevents enabling the applicable module stream versions ( i.e. postgresql:12 and ruby:2.7 ) automatically while enabling the main satellite:el8 or satellite-capsule:el8 module stream.

Diagnostic Steps

  • It can be observed from the following output that both the postgresql:12 and ruby:2.7 module stream are not enabled.
