FOG 1.6.0-beta.2644 DHCP

[jmeyer]

Hello,
I have installed FOG 1.6.0-beta.2644 with DHCP.
I end with

Setting up and starting DHCP Server (Kea)...................Failed
Kea base configuration failed validation (kea-dhcp4 -t); see /root/fogproject/bin/error_logs/fog_error_1.6.0-beta.2644.log

Error logs :

'/etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf' <-> '/etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf.1783500988' renommé
Syntax check failed with: Unable to open file /etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf

This break TFTP directory creation even with the -X option.

Looks to come from Kea.

root@FOGSERVERDEV:~/fogproject/bin# kea-dhcp4 -t /etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf
Syntax check failed with: Unable to open file /etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf

Temporary fix is to run a second time installfog.sh and put a # before “configureDHCP”.

@jmeyer I’m trying ot take a look, but kea is a new thing since isc-dhcp has been deprecated and is nearing its potential EOL.

So we moved toward KEA as the dhcp server, and while it has been added, I can attest I don’t have enough methods of testing.

I suspect the issue is related to different OS baselines:

(e.g. Fedora/RedHat stores config in /etc/kea, but Debian/ubuntu is deciding to store in /etc/kea-dhcp-server - or something I don’t know, just trying to show the issue)

I’m working on trying to validate in the background.

@jmeyer Can you please get me some more information?

1. Is /etc/kea a real, populated directory? Right owner/perms?
   ls -ld /etc/kea; ls -la /etc/kea

2. What’s the OS, and is a MAC layer confining kea-dhcp4?

Debian/Ubuntu:

cat /etc/os-release | head -2; aa-status 2>/dev/null | grep -i kea; dmesg 2>/dev/null | grep -i 'apparmor.*kea' | tail

RHEL/Fedora:

cat /etc/os-release | head -2; getenforce; ausearch -m avc -ts recent 2>/dev/null | grep -i kea | tail

Plus the tail of the install error log around the DHCP step (/opt/fog/log/error_*.log or wherever the run pointed $error_log).
