I just patched three servers up to SP6. I was working on the fourth and I get the response below when running “zypper migration”. Problems at SUSE? Or am I missing something on my end?

I opened a case with tech support. Ended up using SUSE Connect to deregister and cleanup everything, deleted a few files and then reregistered and all is good. ---

Here are the exact steps I took: SUSEConnect --de-register SUSEConnect --cleanup rm -f /etc/SUSEConnect rm -rf /etc/zypp/credentials.d/\* rm -rf /etc/zypp/repos.d/\* rm -f /etc/zypp/services.d/\* SUSEConnect -r reg\_code -e email\_address SUSEConnect --status-text The following three were listed as not registered: SUSE Package Hub 15 (PackageHub/15.5/x86\_64) Desktop Applications Module (sle-module-desktop-applications/15.5/x86\_64) Web and Scripting Module (sle-module-web-scripting/15.5/x86\_64) SUSEConnect -p PackageHub/15.5/x86\_64 SUSEConnect -p sle-module-desktop-applications/15.5/x86\_64 SUSEConnect -p sle-module-web-scripting/15.5/x86\_64 after these steps I was able to run zypper migration and it completed without any issues ---
