Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 11946
anaconda fails during installation
Last modified: 2016-12-16 22:37:01 EST
When the "Reading Packages" screen is up during installation, I get an error from anaconda. This looks very similar to bug #10849, but with a slightly different error message. Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda.real", line 342, in ? intf.run(todo, test = test) File "usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1165, in run rc= apply(step[1](), step[2]) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 584, in __call__ todo.getCompsList() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 469, in getCompsList self.comps = self.method.readComps(self.hdList) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/harddrive.py", line 44, in readComps "/RedHat/base/comps", hdlist) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 326, in __init__ self.readCompsFile(file, self.packages) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 299, in readCompsFile Comp.addPackage(packages[l]) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 46, in __getitem__ return self.packages[item] KeyError: basesystem I get the error using the anaconda updates also. The only difference is a couple of line numbers. These line numbers are from using the updates. In bug #10849, the technician requested to do "p self.instPath" in the debugger when the problem arises. I assumed this problem to be similar, so typed that in the debugger and got: *** AttributeError: <exceptions.AttributeError instance at 8e57c68> I hope that is helpful. Thanks, -Nick Sabine
Thank you for your report. Were you trying to install in graphical mode (GUI) or text mode (TUI)? Was your install a Workstation, Server or Custom install type? If Custom install type, do you recall which groups/packages you selected? I am hoping that information can help track down the source of your problem, as we have been unable to reproduce it here ...
That message came up with GUI installation mode. I selected KDE workstation that particular time, but it happens when I choose Gnome workstation or custom also. -Nick Sabine
hmmm ... are you installing from a mirror site or a downloaded version of RedHat ...? If so, does a re-copy of the install image help this situation ...? Both this and the #10849 bug sound similar to problems noticed in testing when having flaky network connections between the install server and the client ...
I have the same problem! I tried with a workstation installation, using Gnome and I tried with a custom Installation using Gnome, withou success. My computer is a Dell OptiPlex GX110 with 128Ram, 6Gb HD, 3C905 Network adapter. I downloaded the ISO file from the RED HAT ftp site.
I tried with the same CD on a Dell Optiplex GX1 with success. I don't know why I can't install Red Hat on my GX110
We have tested this on our GX110 with no issues.
