Description Randy Rubins 2021-01-06 08:16:54 UTC

Description of problem:
RHOSP 16.1 horizon container is missing mysql driver, which some customers rely on for django session storage.  It appears the mysql driver was there in OSP13 horizon image, but got removed in RHOSP 16.1.  This causes issues for the customers during the upgrade from RHOSP 13 to 16.1.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhosp-rhel8/openstack-horizon:16.1

How reproducible:
Configure local_settings to include:
SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.db'
along with DB connection info.

Actual results:
This fails due to the lack of mysql driver in the horizon container image.

Expected results:
The db backend option for django session storage continues to work.

If there driver was there previously, I think this is a regression, not an RFE.

Comment 7 Matthias Runge 2021-07-08 06:45:02 UTC

This is apparently a side-effect of https://github.com/openstack/kolla/commit/0e2fc8a3b18c3d31b0ecdbfd3ac353d3643b1f5f#diff-8ca905493838c7cf8226d6d359915e973ec22fb23a45427eb49aec714aedcc77

It affects all releases based on train or later.
I agree with the change itself, but also understand the desire to use database backed sessions. IMHO it'd make sense to add a package to support mariadb/mysql.

Raising severity due to the Regression keyword
