oVirt gerrit 99645 0 master MERGED build: using cockpit package, enabling login to Cockpit 2020-04-22 13:10:38 UTC

Description Yaniv Kaul 2018-06-24 08:45:57 UTC
Description of problem:
I think Cockpit is installed as a deps of some oVirt cockpit plugin, but it's not installed correctly, and I until I install cockpit-bridge I cannot login to Cockpit.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@lago-basic-suite-master-engine ~]# rpm -qa |grep cockpit
cockpit-dashboard-165-3.el7.centos.x86_64
ovirt-cockpit-sso-0.0.4-1.el7.noarch
cockpit-ws-165-3.el7.centos.x86_64


How reproducible:
Always (on my O-S-T at least).

This is not an issue on the hosts.

Steps to Reproduce:
Tried to enable and login to Cockpit on my Engine machine (on O-S-T).

Actual results:


Expected results:

cockpit-ovirt doesn't actually appear to be installed here.

ovirt-cockpit-sso is part of a different project, which is confusing (along with cockpit-machines-ovirt).

What does rpm -q --whatrequires cockpit-[dashboard|ws] say?

Specifically:

cockpit-ovirt itself requires the cockpit metapackage. The cockpit metapackage requires cockpit-bridge.

cockpit-bridge handles all dbus interaction from cockpit-ws back to the base system (including logins).

Generally, ovirt-host pulls in cockpit-ovirt, which pulls in cockpit, which pulls in cockpit-bridge.

We'll want to add the appropriate deps to whatever only pulled in some cockpit packages...

I'm talking about the Engine here, not the host.

As part of ovirt-engine RPM, I guess some Cockpit packages are installed:

Comment 3 Michal Skrivanek 2018-06-25 05:08:36 UTC
Cockpit is not being fully installed on engine host, only the sso part which proxies to the actual host. 
NOTABUG unless there is any issue with it

Comment 4 Michal Skrivanek 2018-06-25 05:09:50 UTC
or RFE if we do want cockpit there as well

Comment 5 Michal Skrivanek 2018-06-25 09:49:34 UTC
moving to Integration. It's not a high prio, but it shouldn't be that difficult either as we have it working on hosts

Comment 6 cshao 2018-11-06 10:16:30 UTC
Move back QA Contact to RHV QE due to this is a engine bug.

Comment 7 Sandro Bonazzola 2019-01-23 09:40:02 UTC
Martin, do we want cockpit to be installed and fully configured to be up and running on the appliance? If not, I would close this as wontfix.

I believe we want to, as cockpit should be supported across all OS related content, which includes the engine.

Setting priority and target milestone appropriately
