Description marcus young 2017-01-10 03:34:49 UTC
Description of problem:

For the vagrant-ovirt4 project I cannot get an embedded version of the sdk to compile.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.0.6

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. vagrant plugin install ovirt-engine-sdk

Actual results:
Installing the 'ovirt-engine-sdk' plugin. This can take a few minutes...

Bundler, the underlying system Vagrant uses to install plugins,
reported an error. The error is shown below. These errors are usually
caused by misconfigured plugin installations or transient network
issues. The error from Bundler is:

Comment 1 Juan Hernández 2017-01-10 09:00:56 UTC
Some parts of the Ruby SDK are written in C, to interact with libcurl and libxml2, before building it you need to manually install 'libcurl-devel' and 'libxml2-devel', as described here:

  https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk-ruby/#building

That is for a RPM based distribution, but should be similar for other distributions. Did you do that?

The libcurl-devel and libxml2-devel packages are installed,
otherwise the installation using "gem install ovirt-engine-sdk" wont work.
Problem is that the installation doesn't work using the embedded Ruby in vagrant using "vagrant plugin install ovirt-engine-sdk" which is needed

Comment 3 Juan Hernández 2017-01-11 09:09:36 UTC
Looking at the 'mkmf.log' file generated when the build runs with the Ruby embedded in Vagrant, I see the following (partial) gcc command:

  gcc ... -I/vagrant-substrate/staging/embedded/include/libxml2

This makes me think that the build of the SDK is using the embedded 'xml2-config' tool to find the required header files and libraries, which makes sense. But the directories that that generates seem incorrect:

  $ /opt/vagrant/embedded/bin/xml2-config --cflags
  -I/vagrant-substrate/staging/embedded/include/libxml2

That points to a '/vagrant-substrate' directory that doesn't exist, at least it isn't installed with the version of vagrant that I installed (CentOS 7, vagrant-1.9.1-1.x86_64).

The same happens with the 'curl-config' command. May this be an issue in Vagrant itself?

I solved it making a link to the directory that does exist:

  # mkdir -p /opt/vagrant/embedded
  # ln -s /opt/vagrant/embedded /vagrant-substrate/staging/embedded

Doing that the SDK is installed correctly:

  $ vagrant plugin install ovirt-engine-sdk
  Installing the 'ovirt-engine-sdk' plugin. This can take a few minutes...
  Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
  Installed the plugin 'ovirt-engine-sdk (4.0.6)'!

That could be a temporary solution, so you can continue the development of your plugin, but we better permanent solution. Any suggestion?

Comment 4 Juan Hernández 2017-01-11 09:14:04 UTC
I see the same wrong directory in all the .pc files included in vagrant:

  # grep 'prefix=' /opt/vagrant/embedded/lib/pkgconfig/*.pc

Maybe is an issue with this particular Vagrant installation, I mean, with the RPM for CentOS. Would be nice if you can check with other Vagrant installations.

Comment 5 Juan Hernández 2017-01-11 09:49:28 UTC
I created the following Vagrant issue to request help from their community:

  The .pc files inside RPM packages contain incorrect 'prefix', pointing to '/vagrant-substrate'
  https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/8184

Comment 6 Juan Hernández 2017-01-11 09:59:51 UTC
The workaround I wrote in comment 3 was incorrectly described, it should be like this:

  # mkdir -p /vagrant-substrate/staging
  # ln -s /opt/vagrant/embedded /vagrant-substrate/staging/embedded

Comment 7 Juan Hernández 2017-01-11 12:22:06 UTC
I have submitted a patch that modifies the 'extconf.rb' file of the SDK so that it explicitly fixes the incorrect path returned by the 'xml2-config' tool embedded in Vagrant:

  Enable installation in Vagrant with embedded Ruby
  https://gerrit.ovirt.org/69992

I checked that with that change the SDK can be installed with "vagrant plugin install /path/to/the/fixed/gem". But I have no enough knowledge to check if that will actually work. Any chance that you can test that? The modified .gem file is available here:

  https://jhernand.fedorapeople.org/ovirt-engine-sdk-4.0.6.gem

If that works for you, then I will merge the change and do a new release of the gem.

Comment 8 marcus young 2017-01-11 13:38:40 UTC
I'll check and have an answer in the next few hours. Thanks for the quick feedback

Comment 9 marcus young 2017-01-11 14:35:21 UTC
It seems to install but not load. It doesn't look like it built the extensions.

Comment 10 Juan Hernández 2017-01-11 15:05:30 UTC
In my environment I see that when the SDK is installed as a plugin Vagrant is looking for an "ovirt-engine-sdk.rb" or "ovirt-engine-sdk.so" file, which doesn't exist, it is named "ovirtsdk4.so". Can you try to un-install the SDK, so that it doesnt appear in the "plugins.json" file?

  vagrant plugin uninstall ovirt-engine-sdk

Then try again to install your own plugin. This should pull the SDK, but as a normal gem, not as a plugion. Then, I guess that Vagrant won't look for that non-existing file, and may work.

Comment 11 Juan Hernández 2017-01-11 19:48:24 UTC
After some more testing I found that once installed, the SDK is loaded correctly when required by other plugins. But apparently the vagrant-share plugin tries to load it again, in a different way, and that causes the problem. I can't check why that happens, because the vagrant-share plugin isn't open source, so I am not able to debug what is happening inside. I removed it manually from /opt/vagrant/embedded/plugins.json, and then things seem to work.

Comment 12 marcus young 2017-01-11 19:59:32 UTC
Looks like it's working, however there's a warning (although it doesn't prevent it from seemign to work). 

The warning:  $ vagrant up
Ignoring ovirt-engine-sdk-4.0.6 because its extensions are not built.  Try: gem pristine ovirt-engine-sdk --version 4.0.6

Comment 14 Juan Hernández 2017-01-12 08:41:51 UTC
OK, as things seem to work I will merge the patch and close this bug. Please reopen if at some point you think that we should do something about the warning.

Comment 15 Juan Hernández 2017-01-12 08:57:52 UTC
The fix for this bug is included in release 4.0.7:

  https://rubygems.org/gems/ovirt-engine-sdk/versions/4.0.7

It will also be included in the upcoming oVirt 4.0.7 umbrella release, then the bug will be moved to ON_QA.

Comment 16 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-01-25 07:55:53 UTC
4.0.6 has been the last oVirt 4.0 release, please re-target this bug.

Comment 17 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-02-01 16:02:44 UTC
oVirt 4.1.0 GA has been released, re-targeting to 4.1.1.
Please check if this issue is correctly targeted or already included in 4.1.0.

Comment 18 Juan Hernández 2017-02-01 16:08:30 UTC
This was fixed in version 4.0.7 of the SDK, and is also included in version 4.1.0 of the SDK, which was included in release 4.1.0 of the oVirt project.
