Description Stephen Gallagher 2016-03-15 00:39:19 UTC

Description of problem:
I installed Fedora Server from the Fedora-24-20160314.n.0/ compose. It installed successfully, but after boot I was unable to access the Cockpit admin console. Looking at `systemctl status cockpit.socket`, I noticed that it was listed as "disabled". Investigating /usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/, I discovered that the expected symlink to 80-server.preset is missing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fedora-release-server-24-0.14.noarch

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a recent Fedora Server from any install media
2. Attempt to access the Cockpit admin console on port 9090 with a supported web browser
3.

Actual results:
Connection is refused

Expected results:
The Cockpit admin console should be presented

Additional info:
Looks like fallout from the conversion of the setup scripts to lua. Running the bash `convert-to-edition` script properly creates the symlink.

Comment 1 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2016-03-15 00:41:21 UTC

Proposed as a Blocker for 24-alpha by Fedora user sgallagh using the blocker tracking app because:

 "after system installation the Cockpit web management interface must be running and accessible on its default port (9090)."

Comment 9 Adam Williamson 2016-03-17 07:19:55 UTC

Testing with Alpha candidate 5, cockpit.socket shows as 'enabled', but I still cannot access Cockpit out of the box after a default Server DVD install. I have to manually 'systemctl start cockpit.service' before it will work. I tested both from a remote system and from localhost using links.

Comment 10 Petr Schindler 2016-03-17 09:21:11 UTC

Same here with Alpha c. 5. I have to start cockpit.service (which is disabled by default) to be able to connect.

Comment 11 Stephen Gallagher 2016-03-17 14:24:04 UTC

OK, the first patches properly put the presets in place, but the actual enabling of them silently failed. New patches enable as well.

Comment 13 Chris Murphy 2016-03-20 01:53:09 UTC

Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-24_Alpha-1.6.iso still does not have cockpit starting by default; I can login and systemctl start cockpit and now it's active/running. If I reboot the server, it's no longer active.

Comment 15 Adam Williamson 2016-03-21 02:15:48 UTC

Confirmed fixed in Alpha-1.6, thanks. Cockpit is accessible on boot.

Comment 16 Adam Williamson 2016-03-21 02:16:41 UTC

Chris: the service won't show as running if you check it, because it's socket activated. You just have to try and connect to it and see if that works. It does for me. If you're using the netinst, though, you may not be getting the updated fedora-release anyway, it is best to test with the DVD.

Comment 17 Chris Murphy 2016-03-21 03:28:06 UTC

Yep nevermind, it does work on a new installation upon connecting.

Comment 18 Kamil Páral 2016-03-21 15:10:21 UTC

Tested with Alpha 1.6 Server DVD, works fine.

Comment 19 Fedora Update System 2016-03-23 16:20:54 UTC
