| Porkepix | Hi, I've a little question, did some of you here experiences some issues about AMIs seamingly stuck on boot in some conditions and related to cloud-init? To give some context, we had scripts put as user-data for booting instance and used in a packer report to prepare some AMIs. We wanted to merge those repo and use the same script for both contexts. While it was working well in user-data for | 10:07 |

| Porkepix | booting instance, packer was stuck with this issue: https://www.packer.io/docs/debugging#issues-installing-ubuntu-packages ; to tackle it, we found out a solution was to use `/usr/bin/cloud-init status --wait`. It worked well for fixing the packer failing, but it also created another issue for instances having this in their user-data: the command is never ending and the user-data log is filling | 10:07 |
| Porkepix | like that: https://pic.infini.fr/8o6W1LCW/vO0IsI2v.png | 10:07 |
| Porkepix | So, was it encountered here to have the command never ending and not letting the shell/script take back over? | 10:09 |
| smoser1 | you'd need to share what the command is. why is the command not exiting ? | 17:47 |
| smoser1 | cloud-init wait wont be "done" until the commands it is running are done. That seems sane, doesn't it? | 17:47 |
| === smoser1 is now known as smoser | ||
| smoser | Porkepix ? | 17:47 |
| Porkepix | smoser: Sorry, not at work anymore, but I guess we found out what the issue was, serious miscomprehension of my end that the user-data and scripts it runs are completely part of the cloud-init itself, therefore we created a deadlock were the user-data contained a cloud-init wait, waiting for the end of the user-data itself | 18:06 |
