DRM 3.4.5.938 catalog.xml is empty

Hi,

Since a couple of days we have an issue with DRM. Every export we tried ended with the file catalog.xml being empty.

Ubuntu 22.04.4
Dell Repository Manager 3.4.5.938

Export_07/30/2024_09:07:36 SUCCESS SHARE NA 7/30/24 9:18 A.M

-rw-r--r-- 1 drmuser drmuser 0 Jul 30 09:18 everything8_Catalog.xml

We have this error in the logs

07-30-24 09:18:10 SEVE com.dell.drm.deploymenttools.DeploymentToolHelper removeIndentation null org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; systemId: file:///tmp/drmtemp12183007471837406179/everything8_Catalog.xml; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Premature end of file. at java.xml/com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.DOMParser.parse(DOMParser.java:262) at java.xml/com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.DocumentBuilderImpl.parse(DocumentBuilderImpl.java:342) at java.xml/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder.parse(DocumentBuilder.java:178) at com.dell.drm.deploymenttools.DeploymentToolHelper.removeIndentation(DeploymentToolHelper.java:265) at com.dell.drm.deploymenttools.DeploymentToolHelper.removeIndentationFromCDATA(DeploymentToolHelper.java:248) at com.dell.drm.deploymenttools.Share.writeCatalog(Share.java:480) at com.dell.drm.deploymenttools.Share.writeCatalog(Share.java:451) at com.dell.drm.deploymenttools.Share.run(Share.java:263) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:572) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:317) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.run(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:304) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1144) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:642) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:1583)

We've tried from a fresh DRM install and the issue persist.

Thanks

Hello,

 

I haven't heard of any issues today with the catalog.

 

Can you reach this link and download catalog.cab

 

https://Downloads.dell.com/catalog/Catalog.cab

 

If you extract to catalog.xml can you see how it looks?

 

It looks good when I download it and extract.

Thanks for your reply

We've used your catalog.xml and it's working. I've check the firmware from an idrac and all the available update were listed.

I'm note sure it'll survived the next update/export from DRM.

Hello savagej3ferris,

 

It looks like another technician has picked up the case you linked and is researching on the issue.

 

In the meantime can you try the same:

 

Can you reach this link and download catalog.cab

 

https://Downloads.dell.com/catalog/Catalog.cab

 

If you extract, unzip, to catalog.xml can you see how it looks?

 

It looks good when I download it and extract.

@DELL-Charles R​ Can I put this .XML in any catalog file with the folders and it will work on DELL OME?

Hello,

 

The different catalogs are listed here:
https://dell.to/3AgdIte

You can see the Enterprise catalog, the one I linked, is used for DRM and OME.

 

I have an update empty catalog situation.

It was sourced to root caused for a chipset driver on 14G.

It will be fixed in the next release, but for now you would need to remove the chipset 10.1.19485.8386 from the catalog.

If you're using the Update Manager plugin it shouldn't have this issue.

No Events found!
