Same problem here with cobbler and koan on CentOS 7.1 Software installed: CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 cobbler 2.6.9-1.el7 koan 2.6.9-1.el7 virt-install 1.1.0-12.el7 +1 and we've got a RHEL subscription. Resetting the assignee to the default owner ... Isn't this the same underlying issue as Bug 1276896? The upstream version of koan fixed this in December, although it's not very clear that that's in a comparable version: setup.py in koan reports a version of 2.9.0, but then again that version's dated as 2015-3-16. Is the problem still there in current koan-2.6.11-1 version in EPEL? still same problem: CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core) installed at the moment: koan.noarch 2.6.11-1.el7 virt-install 1.2.1-8.el7 virt-manager 1.2.1-8.el7 (In reply to T. Loehnert from comment #1) > cobbler 2.6.9-1.el7 I think this is the problem. Spacewalk is not currently working properly with newer cobbler from EPEL. You should install cobbler20 package from spacewalk repository. I've just tried to kickstart CentOS 7 on spacewalk nigthly, it was installed succesfully. The only problems there were: - exception when running rhn_check - kickstart was not marked as finished in Web interface - system was not registered to Spacewalk Exception mentioned in previous comment: [root@localhost ~]# rhn_check Preserve files! : [] - looking for Cobbler at http://smqa-r210-02.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com:443/cobbler_api Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/koan/utils.py", line 570, in __try_connect xmlrpc_server.ping() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1233, in __call__ return self.__send(self.__name, args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1587, in __request verbose=self.__verbose File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1273, in request return self.single_request(host, handler, request_body, verbose) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1306, in single_request return self.parse_response(response) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1476, in parse_response p.feed(data) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 558, in feed self._parser.Parse(data, 0) ExpatError: syntax error: line 1, column 49 Note for myself: The exception is caused by trying to connect with http and 443 combination. Koan then retries it with correct parameters. In koan git is this code slightly different and it's possible the exception will disappear in future koan release. Forget about Comment #7, it's irrelevant in this bugzilla. I investigated the issue, koan is calling '/usr/bin/virt-install --version', virt-install writes it to stderr since some version and koan does not expect it. In koan git it's apparently fixed, however it was not released yet for some reason. *** Bug 1320136 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Does that diagnosis support the view in comment 4? (In reply to Tim Coote from comment #13) > Does that diagnosis support the view in comment 4? Yes, you are right. I am afraid that this issue can not be fixed by spacewalk, as we do not own upstream koan and we ship our koan in cobbler20 package. Closing this BZ because the issue is outside of our perview. This will be resolved when the existing fix is released. This BZ closed some time during 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7. Adding to 2.7 tracking bug. |
Description of problem: Attempting to provision a VM from Spacewalk 2.3 (on CentOS7) to a registered KVM host on CentOS7 from the spacewalk GUI will fail if you are running virt-install-1.1.0-12.el7.noarch. You have to revert to the virt-install and virt-manager-common version that came with the base CentOS7 release, virt-install-0.10.0-20.el7.noarch. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Installed Koan versions: spacewalk-koan-2.3.2-1.el7.noarch koan-2.6.9-1.el7.noarch Working versions of virt-install: virt-manager-common-0.10.0-20.el7.noarch virt-install-0.10.0-20.el7.noarch Non-working versions of virt-install [root@node1 kvm]# rpm -q virt-install virt-manager-common virt-install-1.1.0-12.el7.noarch virt-manager-common-1.1.0-12.el7.noarch How reproducible: 100% of the time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install/configure Spacewalk 2.3 (CentOS7 may or may not be necessary) 2. Register KVM host (CentOS7 would be necessary) also add provisioning/provisioning platform entitlement 3. Update KVM host to current Virt-install version, 1.1.0-12.el7 4. Configure kickstart 5. Attempt to provision a VM from spacewalk GUI using kickstart 6. Run rhn_check -vv from KVM host, you will get the error in the "Actual Results" section Actual results: Kickstart shows failed in spacewalk once rhn_check is run or OSAD runs the check. You get the following error. The important part is towards the end, raise Exception("expected version format differs"), and seems to be this section of code: https://github.com/cobbler/koan/blob/master/koan/app.py#L731-L741 [root@node2 virt-rpms]# rhn_check -v - looking for Cobbler at http://spacewalk.internal.mriswithe.com:443/cobbler_api Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/koan/utils.py", line 570, in __try_connect xmlrpc_server.ping() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1224, in __call__ return self.__send(self.__name, args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1578, in __request verbose=self.__verbose File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1264, in request return self.single_request(host, handler, request_body, verbose) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1312, in single_request response.msg, ProtocolError: <ProtocolError for spacewalk.internal.mriswithe.com:443/cobbler_api: 400 Bad Request> - looking for Cobbler at https://spacewalk.internal.mriswithe.com:443/cobbler_api - reading URL: http://spacewalk.internal.mriswithe.com/cblr/svc/op/ks/system/node2.internal.mriswithe.com:1:herewego install_tree: http://spacewalk.internal.mriswithe.com/ty/0KNo9KGD - ['/usr/bin/virt-install', '--version'] 1.1.0 <type 'exceptions.Exception'> expected version format differs File "/usr/share/rhn/spacewalkkoan/spacewalkkoan.py", line 257, in initiate_guest k.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 424, in run self.virt() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 844, in virt return self.net_install(after_download) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 636, in net_install if len(version_str) == 0 and not utils.check_version_greater_or_equal(version_str.strip(), "0.2.0"): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/koan/utils.py", line 591, in check_version_greater_or_equal raise Exception("expected version format differs") Expected results: Install completes normally as virt-install is installed.
