[12:40] <Gaffel> I'm unable to get cloud-init on Centos 8.1.1911 to parse my user-data file. It parses meta-data and changes the hostname accordingly but I'm unable to log in because none of the things in user-data is applied.
[12:42] <Gaffel> This is what my user-data and meta-data looks like: https://paste.centos.org/view/f126b91b
[12:43] <Gaffel> Is there anything weird with user-data? I've followed both cloud-init's docs and guides from Red Hat.
[12:55] <apollo13> Gaffel: what do the logs say? the usually provide some kind of hint
[12:56] <apollo13> I had the problems just yesterday that it wouldn't create my user because admin as a user won't work if the system already has an admin group…
[12:56] <apollo13> but the logs were rather clear about that
[14:08] <Gaffel> apollo13, how do I access logs if I can't log in?
[14:16] <Gaffel> The username is "centos" and the password is blank. But that doesn't work. Nor does it accept my SSH key and it doesn't enable password login on SSH even if I specify that. I've recreated dozens of VMs so far and all I can get is meta-data.
[16:55] <apollo13> Gaffel: rescue cd usually
