Solved Red Hat - installer bug
-
Little bug with the installer, nothing major. Without entering any input when I’m asked what OS I’m using, and just hit ENTER, it throws an error. In the past it’s assumed the right OS.

@Wayne-Workman I am unable to reproduce this issue on a fresh CentOS 7 install with 7286. I kind of guess that your minimal install might be missing the package
redhat-lsb-core
(utillsb_release
) but the installer should take care of this and install this package if it’s missing. So I am not sure what’s going on.rpm -qa | grep lsb redhat-lsb-core-4.1-27.el7.centos.1.x86_64 redhat-lsb-submod-security-4.1-27.el7.centos.1.x86_64

Is this still a problem? Any way we can fully reproduce?
-
@Tom-Elliott I can try to reproduce. I actually took an image of the CentOS 7 setup just before putting fog onto it (because I plan to use it for other things).
I’ll see if I can reproduce.

Unfortunately I can’t. Looking at the script code I can only see the error message "Invalid input, please try again if you put in anything other than “1”, “2”, “3” or “”. My guess is that Wayne hit space and then enter (which we obviously don’t see in that copied console output).
-
@Sebastian-Roth It’s possible. I’ll see if I can reproduce.
-
I’m solving for now. Of course you’re more than welcome to reopen if you do indeed find this is a bug and not just a space/tab/unseen character.

On 8108 This issue is still present. I’ve installed countless times on Fedora and CentOS 7, and a whole lot recently on CentOS 7. Many brand new, unique storage nodes. Not the same server twice. And I’ve also seen this on many different servers at home, using Fedora.
-
@Wayne-Workman I only just pushed. It should show up now.
-
This is not fixed yet.
-
@Wayne-Workman Why can I not replicate?

@Wayne-Workman Can you please to me a favor? Run the installer like this:
sudo -i cd /path/to/fogproject/bin set -x ./installfog.sh ... set +x
You’ll see a lot of stuff on the console. Can you copy&paste all of it and post here?
-
@Sebastian-Roth Will do, I can do this tomorrow morning on yet another new node.
-
@Wayne-Workman Are you seeing this, btw, on your home system as well?
-
@Tom-Elliott yeah.
Here in a minute I’m going to do what Sebastian said.
-
@Sebastian-Roth You’re not going to believe this and I’m going to sound like a liar but… it didn’t do it this time around…
-
@Wayne-Workman wtf ?
-
@Tom-Elliott idk
-
I’ll try again this afternoon on another new node.
