| tikun | kk, thx | 00:21 |
| JanC | I assume the other one is in case you switch to legacy boot | 00:21 |
| lucas_ai | I can't get my @reboot crontab job to run my program. There is no error message in syslog (it shows up as if the command was run but it's not running). Any ideas? | 00:24 |
| Kamilion | lucas_ai: are you expecting PATH to be sane in a crontab, or expecting a specific PWD? | 00:28 |
| lucas_ai | I'm doing this: @reboot /usr/local/bin/autorotate.py > /usr/local/bin/log.txt | 00:29 |
| lucas_ai | I don't think I need the path to be sane. Do I? | 00:29 |
| Kamilion | well, python certainly will be unhappy depending on what you try to import | 00:30 |
| lucas_ai | but I don't see any error message either | 00:30 |
| lucas_ai | How am I supposed to run a script whenever my ubuntu loads? | 00:31 |
| Kamilion | make a systemd unit? | 00:31 |
| lucas_ai | that means adding a lot of code. Why can't I just write my script command somewhere and that's it?? | 00:33 |
| lucas_ai | upstart was fine but systemd is stupid | 00:34 |
| Kamilion | um | 00:35 |
| Kamilion | ... | 00:35 |
| Kamilion | I feel strongly opposite. | 00:35 |
| Kamilion | I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate upstart with a passion. | 00:35 |
| Kamilion | trying to write units in it and get them to behave properly and in order was nothing but trouble | 00:36 |
| lucas_ai | making a unit requires lots of writing. upstart if I remember correctly is just almost a regular bash script | 00:36 |
| Kamilion | no | 00:36 |
| Kamilion | upstart's format is almost the same as systemd. | 00:36 |
| lucas_ai | maybe I'm talking about an even older daemon system | 00:36 |
| Kamilion | https://github.com/kamilion/kamikazi-core/tree/master/resources/xenial/mods/etc/systemd/system | 00:36 |
| Kamilion | here are three service files. | 00:36 |
| lucas_ai | I just want to add my script to be run on start. why is it so hard? | 00:37 |
| Kamilion | it isn't anymore. | 00:37 |
| lucas_ai | I don't wanna make a unit script for every bash/python script I ever want to run on startup. This is disappointing | 00:37 |
| Kamilion | https://github.com/kamilion/kamikazi-core/blob/master/resources/xenial/mods/etc/systemd/system/disque.service | 00:37 |
| Kamilion | look dude, it's ten lines. | 00:37 |
| lucas_ai | the command in that script is only one line | 00:38 |
| lucas_ai | I don't wanna memorize the whole unit syntax | 00:38 |
| lucas_ai | where do I just write "/usr/local/autorun.py" and that leaves it running since it boots? | 00:38 |
| Kamilion | [Unit] | 00:39 |
| Kamilion | After=syslog.target | 00:39 |
| Kamilion | 00:39 | |
| Kamilion | [Service] | 00:39 |
| Kamilion | Type=oneshot | 00:39 |
| Kamilion | ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/autorotate.py > /usr/local/bin/log.txt | 00:39 |
| Kamilion | or drop the whole [Unit] section if you don't need it ordered at boot. | 00:40 |
| Kamilion | generally a good idea to wait until at least syslog or network is running though | 00:40 |
| lucas_ai | awesome. Do I need the Type line? | 00:40 |
| Kamilion | yeah, unless you want it to default to 'restart' | 00:40 |
| lucas_ai | what does that mean? | 00:41 |
| Kamilion | systemd will try to restart it if it exits cleanly. | 00:41 |
| Kamilion | if it throws an error more than 3 times, it'll be put in the 'failed' state and not restarted. | 00:41 |
| Kamilion | oneshot just launches it once, like the old systemv init scripts did. | 00:41 |
| lucas_ai | lol | 00:41 |
| Kamilion | 'just run this, GTFOMW' | 00:41 |
| Kamilion | which is pretty much what you're asking for. | 00:41 |
| lunaphyte | that's all well and good, but cron @reboot should work, and there's nothing wrong with it. it's perfectly fine | 00:42 |
| Kamilion | oneshot is what you need for it to run and become a 'SUCCESS' | 00:42 |
| Kamilion | eh, I've never gotten cron to work properly on @reboot jobs | 00:43 |
| lucas_ai | should I put this unit in /etc/init.d/ ? | 00:43 |
| Kamilion | the unit file? | 00:43 |
| lucas_ai | yes | 00:43 |
| Kamilion | /etc/systemd/system/mylogrotate.service | 00:44 |
| Kamilion | systemctl daemon-reload | 00:44 |
| Kamilion | systemctl start mylogrotate | 00:44 |
| Kamilion | systemctl status mylogrotate | 00:44 |
| Kamilion | check the log messages it prints | 00:44 |
| lucas_ai | sudo service autorotate start Job for autorotate.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status autorotate.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. | 00:46 |
| lunaphyte | it's pretty easy to troubleshoot @reboot. delete /run/crond.reboot, then restart cron and watch the logs | 00:48 |
| lucas_ai | I need to run my script as root. How could I do that in my unit file, Kamilion | 00:48 |
| Kamilion | you didn't ask for it to run as any other user, so it'll run as root. | 00:50 |
| lucas_ai | then why am I getting an error in my script? Sep 11 17:47:41 lucas-Surface-Pro-3 autorotate.py[10820]: Can't open display | 00:51 |
| Kamilion | that sounds like it's trying to access the xorg display somehow. | 00:52 |
| lucas_ai | yes. When i run it manually, it works just fine | 00:53 |
| Kamilion | if you're trying to start a GUI program on boot, you're better off using the xdg autostart then. http://askubuntu.com/questions/63407/where-are-startup-commands-stored | 00:55 |
| lucas_ai | wtf. This is a command line script. But apparently it needs to get a screen | 00:55 |
| Kamilion | eh, then cron would have never worked in the first place. | 00:56 |
| Kamilion | After=graphical.target | 00:57 |
| Kamilion | that will start the script after a display's available; but depends on further configuration such as lightdm autologin or something to actually have the desktop at a meaningful place to execute. | 00:58 |
| lucas_ai | lol | 01:01 |
| lucas_ai | I made a .desktop file in /etc/xdg/autostart | 01:01 |
| lucas_ai | how can I test if it works? | 01:01 |
| Kamilion | double click it? | 01:01 |
| Kamilion | i assume you just right clicked to make the desktop file | 01:01 |
| Kamilion | but I have no idea what kind of workflow you have or how much knowledge | 01:01 |
| lucas_ai | no. on the terminal | 01:01 |
| Kamilion | oh, I have no idea how to use .desktop files on the terminal | 01:02 |
| lucas_ai | i'll try in nautilus then | 01:02 |
| Kamilion | they're the equivolent to windows shortcut icons | 01:02 |

| jamespage | I'm trying to get some yakkety/openstack testing back up and running - I'm working around the apt-mirror issue (by setting it) | 11:27 |
| jamespage | but our current daily (from the 3rd) breaks on upgrade of grub | 11:27 |
| Odd_Bloke | jamespage: We're having some issues testing on ppc64el which are breaking things, which I need to dig in to; I'll manually override the latest one though, as it's been a while since we had one. | 11:28 |

| jamespage | Odd_Bloke, \o/ | 11:30 |
| Odd_Bloke | And now I guess I should dig in to these ppc64el failures, as my "wait a week" strategy hasn't yielded the results I was hoping for. :p | 11:31 |

| ddellav | jamespage i'd love to help. Do you mean deploying newton on xenial and using that ppa as a target in the next.yaml? | 13:57 |
| jamespage | ddellav, no - you need to deploy either the xenial-newton or xenial-newton-branch targets from o-c-t | 13:59 |

| jamespage | including the bits for loading modules and stuff | 19:13 |
| EmilienM | jamespage: mhh, ok | 19:14 |
| jamespage | EmilienM, oddly enough I noted a few tempest failures pm today when doing some ovs testing | 19:22 |
| jamespage | might be related | 19:22 |
| jamespage | related to instances not being accessible | 19:22 |
| EmilienM | with ovs we have 0 issue | 19:22 |
| EmilienM | only with linuxbridge | 19:22 |
| jamespage | EmilienM, that test (test_network_basic_ops.TestNetworkBasicOps) is the only one in the tempest test suite that actually verified floating-ip -> instance connectivity I think | 19:24 |
| EmilienM | yep, that is the one that failed for us when using linuxbridge backend in neutron | 19:24 |
| EmilienM | when using ovs, it pass fine | 19:24 |

| jamespage | ddellav, symptomatically you can't access instances | 19:30 |
| jamespage | ddellav, the status of the router port is DOWN | 19:30 |
| jamespage | until the n-ovs-agent on the n-gateway unit is restarted | 19:30 |
| ddellav | ok, i'll try that. So far I'm just seeing an error on config-changed during startup. I'm digging through logs but i don't see much. I'm redeploying now | 19:31 |
| jamespage | EmilienM, are the puppet modules using the native ryu support for managing ovs, or the older ovs-vsctl driver? | 19:33 |
| EmilienM | jamespage: we use the one in neutron upstream default | 19:35 |
| jamespage | EmilienM, ok so ryu for newton | 19:35 |
| EmilienM | yep | 19:36 |
