1127399 – Cannot compile sample OpenPegasus providers "Error adding class CIM_Component to the repository"

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Sean Stewart 2014-08-06 19:58:07 UTC

Description of problem:
I've installed tog-pegasus-devel, and am trying to compile the sample providers, so I can use them and the sample clients to work on writing my own providers/clients.  But when I run the "make setupSDK" command, I get the following, appearing that it's missing a CIM class that I can not find any reference to, except in the documentation.  I've installed every openlmi or pegasus related pacakge I can find:

root@wica-fo-freestate:/usr/share/Pegasus/samples# make setupSDK
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/share/Pegasus/samples/Providers/Load'
+++++ Creating SDKExamples/DefaultCXX namespace ...
+++++ Loading SDK_CIM_Schema.mof into SDKExamples/DefaultCXX namespace ...
Warning:  Class CIM_ManagedElement already exists in the repository
Warning:  Class CIM_ManagedSystemElement already exists in the repository
Warning:  Class CIM_LogicalElement already exists in the repository
Parsing error: parse error: Error adding class CIM_Component to the repository: CIM_ERR_INVALID_SUPERCLASS: CIM_AbstractComponent
make[1]: *** [createCXXrepository] Error 250
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/share/Pegasus/samples/Providers/Load'
make: *** [setupSDK] Error 2

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tog-pegasus-2.12.1-16.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install tog-pegasus, tog-pegasus-devel, and related packages
2. cd /usr/share/Pegasus/samples
3. make setupSDK

Actual results:
Error complaining that CIM_AbstractComponent can't be found

Expected results:
Providers should be able to compile out of the box

Comment 2 Vitezslav Crhonek 2014-08-07 12:08:50 UTC

Seems to be caused by two facts - we ship and use newer schema than was originally packed in tog-pegasus's tarball (because the old one is missing some classes needed by OpenLMI providers) and default interop namespace has been changed to root/interop instead of original root/PG_InterOp (e.g. because of compatibility with SFCB CIMOM).

Until it's fixed, you can workaround the issue:

1. copy CIM_AbstractComponent.mof shipped in cim-schema package to the sample providers:
# cp /usr/share/mof/cimv2.33.0/Core/CIM_AbstractComponent.mof /usr/share/Pegasus/samples/Providers/Load/CIM233/DMTF/Core/

2. patch /usr/share/Pegasus/samples/Providers/Load/Makefile and
/usr/share/Pegasus/samples/Providers/Load/SDK_CIM_Schema.mof
with attached patch (registers missing class, enables registering experimental classes and changes interop)

Hope this helps, then it should work as expected.

Comment 4 Sean Stewart 2014-08-07 15:20:31 UTC

Thanks for the quick response.

I patched the file and am still getting an error:
Could not open include file DMTF/Core/CIM_AbstractComponent.mof

What package is supposed to install this file?  I think I've installed everything I can think of and it still seems to be missing.

Comment 5 Sean Stewart 2014-08-07 15:24:13 UTC

Oops, it helps if I read the entire comment. :)

Thanks again!

Comment 12 Alois Mahdal 2015-09-24 04:01:51 UTC

Works on all except ppc64le, where it complains:

    mak/config.mak:84: *** PEGASUS_PLATFORM environment variable undefined. Please set to one of the following:  LINUX_PPC_E500_GNU   LINUX_ZSERIES_GNU   LINUX_GNU   LINUX_SH4_GNU   LINUX_IX86_GNU   LINUX_X86_64_CLANG   LINUX_IX86_CLANG   LINUX_PPC64_GNU   LINUX_AARCH64_GNU   LINUX_IA64_GNU   LINUX_PPC_GNU   LINUX_ZSERIES64_GNU   LINUX_X86_64_GNU  .  Stop.

Should it even work out-of-the-box?  If so, should this be reassigned or logged as separate bug?  Or it's matter of documentation?

Comment 13 Vitezslav Crhonek 2015-09-24 11:22:57 UTC

Please file it as a new bug. It probably never worked on ppc64le and its support needs to be added.

Comment 14 Alois Mahdal 2015-09-24 20:33:51 UTC

Thank you for explanation; the issue is now filed as bug 1266235.

As I said, the rest of archs is OK so the original problem is fixed.
