| Guest91 | Hello, is there an active mailing list for cloud-init user support? | 19:38 |
|---|---|---|
| blackboxsw | Guest91: our mailing list is cloud-init@lists.launchpad.net for community discussions and notices. You can also send off questions here which may get a more swift response. | 19:39 |
| Guest91 | thank you, I will try here first | 19:40 |
| Guest91 | we upgraded from Oracle Linux 7 to Oracle Linux 8, from Cloud-init v18.5 to Cloud-init v23; our user-script stopped working after that, we see that the runcmd module is not executed by scripts-user anymore like it did in OL7, the script is present under the instance/scripts directory | 19:41 |
| blackboxsw | minimal: I think that question about locale being set in images on Friday was a general poll to see if folks in the cloud-init community are aware of any use-cases where base/golden images may not setup any default system locale intentionally on expectation that cloud-init (or some other image installer tooling) performs that image configuration manually or automatically on their behalf during first launch or image creation. | 19:42 |
| blackboxsw | minimal: it was directly related to my existing locale PR https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/pull/5647 which may lead us to explore a departure from performing locale generation if absent and unspecified in user-data or system config | 19:43 |
| -ubottu:#cloud-init- Pull 5647 in canonical/cloud-init "fix(schema): Allow for locale: false in schema add tests" [Open] | 19:43 | |
| blackboxsw | Guest91: thx for the ping and context. A couple of things to peek at in initial triage are documented here (as a primer) https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/howto/debugging.html. Generally checking cloud-init status --long or --format=yaml may give some indication to big errors/warnings that may have happened. | 19:46 |
| blackboxsw | Guest91: Also, specific to user-scripts, the stdout, stderr of user-scripts generally gets redirected to /var/log/cloud-init-output.log I believe, so you may find some breadcrumbs of failed script runs/output there | 19:46 |
| minimal | blackboxsw: it wasn't clear to me if it was specific to "locale generation" or locale in general. Alpine doesn't do "locale generation" at all | 20:35 |
