Having problems getting ovsdb started using CentOS 7. I downloaded
and built OVS 2.1.2 (also tried 2.3.0) using
rpmbuild -bb rhel/openvswitch.spec
Then installed the RPM. But when I try and start OVS, ovsdb fails to
start.
[root@localhost ~]# /etc/init.d/openvswitch start
Starting ovsdb-server ovsdb-server: I/O error: /etc/openvswitch/conf.db:
failed to lock lockfile (Resource temporarily unavailable)
[FAILED]
2014-08-30T18:53:09Z|00002|reconnect|WARN|unix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock:
connection attempt failed (No such file or directory)
ovs-vsctl: unix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock: database connection failed
(No such file or directory)
Starting ovs-vswitchd
Strange part is that when I try and start ovsdb-server directly, it
seems to start OK.
[root@localhost ~]# ovsdb-server /etc/openvswitch/conf.db
2014-08-30T19:14:24Z|00001|ovsdb_server|INFO|ovsdb-server (Open vSwitch)
2.1.2
Anyone else get it running in CentOS 7? I had similar issues just
after installing OVS.
/etc/openvswitch/conf.db does not exist ... (warning).
Creating empty database /etc/openvswitch/conf.db ovsdb-tool: I/O error:
/etc/openvswitch/conf.db: failed to lock lockfile (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
[FAILED]
Again, when I run the ovsdb-tool manually, it works fine. Is there
some strange systemd thing preventing me? Seems like a CentOS issue,
but not sure what. Note: even though ovsdb-server fails to start, the
ovs-vswitchd start after, but obviously has problems with ovsdb missing.
Thanks,
Greg
