Description of problem: Starting with anaconda because I have no idea what might be the cause. I'm not seeing this on physical hardware though. During install the network regularly "locks up" and I see a "file cannot be opened error". Running tshark on the xen host shows: 20.041845 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 TCP 48277 > http [SYN] Seq=0 Win=5840 Len=0MSS=1460 TSV=4294870692 TSER=0 WS=6 20.041930 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 TCP http > 48277 [SYN, ACK] Seq=0 Ack=1 Win=5792 Len=0 MSS=1460 TSV=2421571718 TSER=4294870692 WS=6 20.042421 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 TCP 48277 > http [ACK] Seq=1 Ack=1 Win=5888Len=0 TSV=4294870692 TSER=2421571718 20.042438 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 HTTP GET /fedora/linux/development/x86_64/os/Packages/vconfig-1.9-7.fc11.x86_64.rpm HTTP/1.1 20.042534 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 TCP http > 48277 [ACK] Seq=1 Ack=210 Win=6912 Len=0 TSV=2421571719 TSER=4294870692 20.281541 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 HTTP HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content [Packet size limited during capture] 20.281543 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 HTTP Continuation or non-HTTP traffic[Packet size limited during capture] 20.281593 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 HTTP Continuation or non-HTTP traffic[Packet size limited during capture] 20.281761 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 TCP 48277 > http [ACK] Seq=210 Ack=1449 Win=8768 Len=0 TSV=4294870933 TSER=2421571958 20.281793 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 TCP 48277 > http [ACK] Seq=210 Ack=2897 Win=11648 Len=0 TSV=4294870933 TSER=2421571958 20.281836 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 TCP 48277 > http [ACK] Seq=210 Ack=4345 Win=14528 Len=0 TSV=4294870933 TSER=2421571958 20.281973 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 HTTP Continuation or non-HTTP traffic[Packet size limited during capture] 20.281975 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 HTTP Continuation or non-HTTP traffic[Packet size limited during capture] 20.282054 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 TCP 48277 > http [ACK] Seq=210 Ack=5793 Win=17472 Len=0 TSV=4294870933 TSER=2421571958 20.286335 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.12 TCP 48277 > http [FIN, ACK] Seq=210 Ack=6350 Win=20352 Len=0 TSV=4294870936 TSER=2421571958 20.286458 192.168.0.12 -> 192.168.0.152 TCP http > 48277 [ACK] Seq=6350 Ack=211 Win=6912 Len=0 TSV=2421571963 TSER=4294870936 20.292541 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.8 DNS Standard query AAAA fedora.cora.nwra.com 20.292999 192.168.0.8 -> 192.168.0.152 DNS Standard query response CNAME saga.cora.nwra.com 20.293298 192.168.0.152 -> 192.168.0.8 DNS Standard query A fedora.cora.nwra.com 20.293632 192.168.0.8 -> 192.168.0.152 DNS Standard query response CNAME saga.cora.nwra.com A 192.168.0.12 and there it hangs. Resolver issue? VT3: WARNING : Try 1/10 for http://fedora.cora.nwra.com/fedora/linux/development/x86_64/os/Packages/dosfstools-3.0.1-4.fc11.x86_64.rpm failed: [Errno 12] Timeout: <urlopen error timed out> Note that dosfstools is not listed in the packet dump - it's hanging before that somewhere is the resolver step. Nothing of note on VT4/5. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 11.5.0.38 How reproducible: Everytime Host is CentOS 5.2 with: 2.6.18-132.el5virttest10xen xen-3.0.3-73.el5
Went back and re-installed a F10 guest and that had no problem. Is there an anaconda update image somewhere with debugging tools like strace and gdb in it somewhere? Might be handy....
Orion: you can just scp the strace binary, WFM in the past It'd be nice to get some confirmation that others are seeing the issue too - perhaps post to fedora-virt-list asking others to try and reproduce?
Moving onto the blocker list for now - if it is generally reproducible, it really needs to be fixed before GA
I'm not seeing this any more.
