| Odd_Bloke | uebera||: Can I confirm your issue from a few days ago: changing `500` to `"500"` in your config is what fixed your UID issue? Or did you end up finding something else going on? | 13:21 |
|---|---|---|
| Odd_Bloke | meena: I've been lying on the floor with back pain all of this week so far, which has probably contributed to the silence. :p | 13:21 |
| uebera|| | Odd_Bloke: Yes, just using a string "500" instead of an integer 500 solved my problem with respect to UIDs. | 13:41 |
| === vrubiolo1 is now known as vrubiolo | ||
| uebera|| | If only there was a way to specify GIDs (as far as I understand, a certain patch was not applied). I used runcmd (along with sed) to change the GID of a created account (requires a reboot), but that's really, really dirty. | 13:49 |
| Odd_Bloke | uebera||: Would you be interested in contributing a gid change? | 14:28 |
| uebera|| | Odd_Bloke: If this --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1396362/comments/5 does not apply cleanly anymore, I'd be interested in a modification (have not tested this yet). | 14:32 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1396362 in cloud-init "Support UID and GID specification in user and group definitions" [Low,Triaged] | 14:32 |
| uebera|| | Given that the VM in question is now up and running, I should have time to look at the above during the weekend. | 14:33 |
| Odd_Bloke | uebera||: Given that we do now support `uid`, I don't think that patch will cleanly apply (because it includes changes to support `uid`). If you do end up having time, we'd love the contribution; the getting started guide is here: https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/hacking.html#submitting-your-first-pull-request | 16:44 |
| Odd_Bloke | (If you hit any hurdles, we're happy to help in here, but note that most of the committers only monitor this channel in ~North American weekday timezones so assistance over the weekend may be sparse. :) | 16:46 |
| meena | Odd_Bloke: obviiously, the solution to that then is that you should complain about your back pain, whenever that happens. a lot. | 17:18 |
| uebera|| | Odd_Bloke: Thanks for the link, bookmarked. ;) | 20:17 |
| meena | i cannot believe i was just removed from the Canonical github organisation! | 20:27 |
| meena | why was i on it again?? | 20:28 |
| powersj | meena, yeah I couldn't recall and all I saw was read-only | 20:33 |
| powersj | so read-only on a public project didn't make sense | 20:33 |
| meena | it's just jokey fake outrage | 20:35 |
| meena | Odd_Bloke: added me like that, so y'all could request me as reviewer | 20:36 |
| meena | but of course, that probably wasn't documented, and anyway, most authorization UIs don't really have a space for "why", or? | 20:37 |
