Hi Darren,

I wasn't aware of the stork mailing list, so thanks for that.

The stork agent was running on the server with kea and the kea control agent, the issue ended up being a bug with using an IPv6 address in the kea control agent http-host option.

Managed to use a different email to create a account on the ISC gitlab and opened an issue. (https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/stork/-/issues/2092)

Thanks,
Lucas

Hi Lucas,

You might have better luck on the stork-users mailing list.  See here:
https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/stork-users

It seems like there might be some confusion about how the Stork
deployment works.  There are two parts (stork-server and stork-agent)
and I didn't see you mention the second part.  On the server where you
are running Kea, there should also be a stork-agent installed.  I am
unsure if you completed that step because you haven't mentioned it and
there are no logs shown.  The stork-server does not connect directly
to the kea-ctrl-agent.  See quickstart guide here:
https://kb.isc.org/docs/stork-quickstart-guide

Thank you,
Darren Ankney

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place, I first tried to signup for at the
GitLab site to create a issue, however it would not accept this email
address.

I am attempting to setup a stork server to manage a few Kea instances.

Kea and the Kea Control Agent are running in one VM and stork is running
in another. I have confirmed that stork can connect to the control
agent, and the server appears in the stork UI, however no actions can be
performed, this version shows as a blank string, and going to the
"Software versions" tab results in "An error occurred when retrieving
software version data: Couldn't parse valid semver from given undefined
version!"

Looking at the stork server logs I see:

Oct 27 05:54:10 stork-92bky3sw stork-server[2356]: time="2025-10-27
05:54:10" level="info" msg="Completed pulling DHCP status from Kea apps:
0/0 succeeded" file="           status.go:258  "
Oct 27 05:54:20 stork-92bky3sw stork-server[2356]: time="2025-10-27
05:54:20" level="warning" msg="Problem getting state from Kea CA: cannot

05:54:20" level="info" msg="Completed pulling information from machines:

Oct 27 05:54:40 stork-92bky3sw stork-server[2356]: time="2025-10-27
05:54:40" level="info" msg="Completed pulling DHCP status from Kea apps:
0/0 succeeded" file="           status.go:258  "

On the kea and kea control agent side I see version and config get
commands being received.

Running the following command on the stork server:
curl -6 -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json"      -d '{
"command": "version-get", "service": [ "dhcp6" ] }'
http://[fdd7:d404:ca7c:20::200]:8000/

(fdd7:d404:ca7c:20::200 is my Kea server)

Results in:

[ { "arguments": { "extended": "3.0.1 (3.0.1 (isc20250820123020.el9
rpm))\npremium: yes (isc20250820123020.el9 rpm)\nlinked with:\n-

backends:\n- PostgreSQL backend 29.0, library 130020" }, "result": 0,
"text": "3.0.1" } ]


Not sure what steps I should take to debug.

Kea Version: 3.0.1
Stork Version: 2.2.1
OS: AlmaLinux 9

Would appreciate any help, or if there is somewhere else I should be
asking this.

Thanks,
Lucas
