Hello, I have installed cockpit 151 on a F26 client and when checking the "Software Updates" on the cockpit server, it says "Updates are disabled. You need to re-subscribe this system." When I click on "View Registration Details", it show a page with "Not found" on it. I remioved the client and re-added it but still same problem. https://imgur.com/a/ah6Hm
What can I do? F.

It looks like you have subscription-manager installed on your Fedora system? If you run this command in a terminal:
busctl call com.redhat.SubscriptionManager /EntitlementStatus com.redhat.SubscriptionManager.EntitlementStatus check_status
what does it say?
I suppose Updates need to handle the case that subscription-manager is installed on a non-RHEL machine where the concept of subscriptions don't exist. I'm primarily interested in which error/status code this gives.
Thanks!

Here is the output: $ busctl call com.redhat.SubscriptionManager /EntitlementStatus com.redhat.SubscriptionManager.EntitlementStatus check_status i 5

Ah, bummer. This status code means "registration required" [1], which is wrong on Fedora.
I filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1505955 about this (feel free to subscribe). IMHO this should be fixed properly rather than guessed/hacked around in Cockpit.
Thanks,
Martin

Package "subscription-manager" was installed which gave the message "Updates are disabled. You need to re-subscribe this system.". I removed it and it is working now.
