| jtv | rvba: just having a look at bug 1092265... one thing I don't understand is that the node's log mentions "raring" all over the place, not "precise." I thought you said the node was being set up with Precise? | 11:07 |
|---|---|---|
| ubot5 | bug 1092265 in MAAS "juju setup fails on raring" [Critical,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1092265 | 11:07 |
| jtv | Oh, that log is not from the node, is it? | 11:08 |
| rvba | jtv: it's booting precise. What log? | 11:08 |
| rvba | The Jenkins' log? | 11:08 |
| rvba | That's the report from the installation of the MAAS server… on raring. | 11:09 |
| jtv | Yeah... I was looking at the wrong log there. | 11:09 |
| rvba | jtv: I'm trying to debug this in the lab right now… so far, no luck… | 11:10 |
| jtv | The console screenshots seem to suggest that the TFTP request times out, or fails in some other way, and the node falls back to local boot. Is that normal? | 11:10 |
| rvba | That's not what I see. I see the request go through ok (i.e. reach the webserver fine). | 11:11 |
| jtv | The webserver? But it's supposed to go to the cluster controller, right? | 11:12 |
| rvba | Node -> pserv -> webapp and then back | 11:13 |
| jtv | Oh, depending on whether it's the config or the actual image of course... | 11:13 |
| jtv | So what you get to see on the webserver is the cluster controller's API request for PXE config information. | 11:14 |
| rvba | Yes | 11:14 |
| rvba | This is the pxe config used: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1491555/ | 11:15 |
| rvba | Looks fine. | 11:15 |
| jtv | Do we know chain.c32 is still OK? | 11:17 |
| rvba | No. It definitely looks like the problem is in there. | 11:18 |
| rvba | Any idea how to debug this? | 11:19 |
| jtv | TFTP server logs. See if the requests _after_ the one for the config are happening. | 11:19 |
| jtv | I guess we'd expect requests for chain.c32, the kernel, and initrd. And here's hoping they didn't change the naming convention for those again! | 11:21 |
| rvba | rarg, I need to clean up all the debugging statements I put in there first… | 11:25 |
| rvba | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1491568/ That's the log | 11:27 |
| rvba | No sign of the other files being transferred. | 11:28 |
| jtv | I do see chain.c32 being mentioned... but not the images :( | 11:30 |
| rvba | Indeed | 11:30 |
| rvba | jtv: If I replace the file chain.c32 with the one from the syslinux package on *quantal*, the boot seems to work. | 11:33 |
| jtv | Gah | 11:34 |
| jtv | rvba: the syslinux in Quantal is 2.x, and upstream is at 4.x. Good chance of a major change in Raring I guess. :( | 11:40 |
| rvba | Judging by the size of the files only, there is a major change. | 11:41 |
| jtv | I think all you can really do at this point is punt to the server peoples. | 11:41 |
| rvba | Yep, I've added a comment on the bug. | 11:41 |
| jtv | And I just got my marching orders — time to hop on the scooter and scoot over to the other village. | 11:42 |
| jtv | Let's just hope the new syslinux doesn't require any painful changes on our end. See you tomorrow! | 11:44 |
| rvba | jtv: why do you say that the version of syslinux is 2.x in quantal, it says 2:4.05+dfsg-6 | 11:44 |
| rvba | ? | 11:44 |
| rvba | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1491595/ | 11:44 |
| jtv | Oh! Argh! I read the "2" and ignored the rest. | 11:44 |
| jtv | Upstream is at... 4.06? | 11:44 |
| rvba | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1491596/ | 11:45 |
| rvba | The versions are not that different. | 11:45 |
| rvba | But still, we have a problem :) | 11:45 |
| jtv | Clearly! | 11:45 |
| rvba | Anyway, I'll poke the server people. | 11:46 |
| jtv | What does the "2:" stand for, in the version number? I probably should know this, but it's not the sort of thing I deal with regularly any more. | 11:46 |
| rvba | I don't know either. | 11:46 |
| jtv | Oh well. The upstream wiki did say something about a major change. | 11:48 |
| jtv | In 4.06. | 11:48 |
| jtv | And I really must run — nn! | 11:48 |
| rvba | nn jtv | 11:48 |
| rvba | roaksoax: smoser: Hi guys. Would you mind having a look at bug 1092265? I think I identified where the problem is (see my comments on the bug) but this looks like something you guys would know how to fix it. | 15:49 |

| roaksoax | robbiew: i'll do some testing but seems problem of newer chain.c32 as you mention | 16:32 |
| roaksoax | so there's probably a bug in a code or who knows what would it be | 16:32 |
| robbiew | huh? | 16:33 |
| rvba | roaksoax: cool, thanks for looking into it. | 16:33 |
| roaksoax | robbiew: err sorry :) was for rvba :) | 16:36 |
| roaksoax | rvba: maybe something changed in newer syslinux and template needs some additional info in order for it to boot | 16:37 |
| rvba | roaksoax: the pxe config used is this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1491555/ | 16:38 |
| roaksoax | rvba: yeah seems right | 16:40 |
| rvba | And simple :) | 16:40 |
| roaksoax | rvba: i have to re-setup environments so it will take me a few hours | 16:40 |
| rvba | roaksoax: all right. I'll be off soon so please send me an email or comment on the bug if you make progress or want me to test things. | 16:43 |
| roaksoax | rvba: sure thing | 16:44 |

| alperkanat | hey there.. i'm trying to test maas with Ubuntu Server 12.10 on virtualbox.. there are 2 vm's each have 2 nics on themselves. 1 is open to public network (internet) and the other is open to private network (192.168.57.x with no DHCP server) | 17:32 |
| alperkanat | i've enabled DHCP/DNS on MAAS | 17:33 |
| alperkanat | the node seems to find PXE | 17:33 |
| alperkanat | but TFTP gives a timeout | 17:33 |
| alperkanat | any ideas? | 17:33 |

| bstillwell | I'm working on setting up MAAS on quantal and when attempting to PXE boot a node, it gets hung up trying to download pxelinux.cfg/default | 21:46 |
| bstillwell | Any idea what I might have missed? | 21:46 |
| bstillwell | I've configured MAAS to handle both dhcp and dns. | 21:47 |
| bstillwell | I don't see a /var/lib/maas/tftp/pxelinux.cfg at all. | 21:49 |
| bstillwell | What part of MAAS creates pxelinux.cfg? | 22:07 |
| roaksoax | bstillwell: check that /etc/maas/maas_local_settings.py has the correct IP for MAAS_URL | 22:29 |
| bstillwell | roaksoax: looks good | 22:31 |
| bstillwell | I did find one issue with the docs so far. When running maas-import-pxe-files, you may need to set both http_proxy and https_proxy. | 22:34 |
| bstillwell | maas-import-ephemerals uses https | 22:34 |
| bstillwell | Oh, and this page points to other pages that don't exist: | 22:35 |
| bstillwell | http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/install-ubuntu-cloud | 22:35 |
| bstillwell | specifically steps 4 & 5 | 22:35 |
| bstillwell | ahh, figured it out | 23:00 |
| bstillwell | I disabled i386 and armhf so I wouldn't have to download the largish ephermal images. | 23:00 |
| bstillwell | Looks like i386 is needed | 23:00 |
| bstillwell | looks like the node is trying to download stuff from archive.ubuntu.com now, but it isn't using the proxy like it should... | 23:03 |
| bstillwell | Is that configurable somewhere? | 23:03 |
| bigjools | it's set in the preseed | 23:11 |
| bigjools | by default it uses a local squid-deb-proxy | 23:11 |
| bstillwell | Where's the preseed file at? | 23:12 |
| bstillwell | found them: /usr/share/maas/preseeds | 23:16 |
| bstillwell | This message needs to be updated: | 23:22 |
| bstillwell | You can boot this node using Avahi-enabled boot media or an adequately configured dhcp server. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/MAAS/AvahiBoot for instructions. | 23:22 |
| bstillwell | That link doesn't work | 23:22 |
| bigjools | gah | 23:29 |
| bigjools | I think a lot of these bugs were fixed, it's just not released yet | 23:29 |
| bigjools | see https://launchpad.net/maas/+milestone/12.10-stabilization | 23:30 |
| bstillwell | looks like lots of fixed bugs. :) | 23:33 |
| bstillwell | So on this page it says the updated juju packages will be in main after the release of precise: | 23:57 |
| bstillwell | https://maas.ubuntu.com/docs/quantal/juju-quick-start.html | 23:57 |
| bstillwell | seems like it should be updated too | 23:57 |
