| CatKiller | Hi there! I've got a small issue with cloud-init on Ubuntu 14.04 desktop edition | 10:30 |
|---|---|---|
| CatKiller | I've successfully installed it, but it seems that "dpkg-reconfigure cloud-init" fails with an error | 10:30 |
| CatKiller | When ran, it opens the curses menu correctly, I can for instance pick another source | 10:30 |
| CatKiller | but when I save, I get a few errors and the values of datasource_list remain unchangfed | 10:31 |
| CatKiller | Here's a paste of the errors | 10:31 |
| CatKiller | http://bpaste.net/show/nH2m5x3oKxGYP8cmrmBs/ | 10:31 |
| CatKiller | dpkg-reconfigure returns "0" on exit though | 10:31 |
| CatKiller | Also the strange thing is that if I look in reconfigure, only the OpenStack datasource is selected. | 10:32 |
| CatKiller | But if I look into /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg.cfg only CloudStack appears on the datasource_list | 10:32 |

| smoser | CatKiller, bug 1325746 | 17:21 |
| CatKiller | smoser: Thanks! | 17:32 |
| smoser | i'm gonna upload that to proposed today | 17:33 |
| smoser | but it will be at least 7 days till its in trusty-proposed | 17:34 |
| CatKiller | Well I can probably compile and install cloud-init from source otherwise | 17:35 |
| CatKiller | purge the apt installed package | 17:35 |
| CatKiller | and just get the very latest | 17:35 |
| CatKiller | Also another question | 17:35 |
| CatKiller | I then changed /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg.cfg "by hand" to include OpenStack and Ec2 | 17:36 |
| CatKiller | However when I run "cloud-init init" it doesn't seem to try to connect to the metadata server | 17:37 |
| smoser | you can. but whenver dpkg-reconfigure cloud-init runs it screws it. | 17:37 |
| smoser | you probably have to run 'cloud-init init --local' first | 17:37 |
| CatKiller | Could that be that dpkg-reconfigure does more than just setting the metadata sources? | 17:37 |
| smoser | as that will remove some state | 17:37 |
| CatKiller | smoser: I'll try that too, thanks | 17:39 |
| CatKiller | smoser: omg it worked. Thanks a lot. Not sure what that did though ;) | 17:45 |
| smoser | CatKiller, sudo rm -f /var/lib/cloud/instance | 17:47 |
| smoser | is about it really. | 17:47 |
| smoser | since it had all ran before it found the 'None' data source. so running it again just said "already found". | 17:47 |
| CatKiller | ahhhh ok | 17:51 |
| CatKiller | smoser: I get it, I was wondering what all this data was about | 17:51 |
| CatKiller | smoser: So basically, in the base image that directoy | 17:51 |
| CatKiller | *directory should be empty | 17:51 |
| smoser | well, its a symlink | 17:52 |
| smoser | so it doesn't really matter. | 17:52 |
| smoser | when it finds a datasource, it links that tot he current data. | 17:52 |
| smoser | and other data is otherwise ignroed | 17:52 |
| CatKiller | smoser: OK cool, that makes a bit of sense | 17:56 |
| CatKiller | smoser: On a clean image, should I delete the entire contents of /var/lib/cloud then? | 17:57 |
| CatKiller | I've noticed that this directory only gets populated the first time cloud-init runs | 17:57 |
| CatKiller | So that I can leave cloud-init pick the "right" data source on boot? | 17:57 |
| smoser | you can. | 18:01 |
| smoser | you dont need to | 18:01 |
| smoser | but you can | 18:02 |
| smoser | on boot, cloud-init --local gets run | 18:02 |
| smoser | so it will always pick the right datasource | 18:02 |
