Dumping the HTTP Communication

If you need to exactly know what was sent to the server and what was received then you can set SCCDEBUG=1 environment variable. Then all HTTP communication will be dumped to STDERR. If you need to save it to a file just redirect the STDERR output to file.

At Installation

  • boot installation with startshell=1 option
  • start installation using SCCDEBUG=1 yast 2> scc_debug.log command

At Running System

  • run the yast module with this command (as root): SCCDEBUG=1 yast2 scc 2> scc_debug.log

⚠️ Warning! ⚠️

The dumped communication log contains sensitive data like registration keys or SCC login credentials (user name and password). Make sure you remove the sensitive data before passing the output to someone else (or at least use the Private flag when attaching the log at https://bugzilla.suse.com)!
