Today I installed the 12.04 package and attempted to upgrade to the latest daily PPA package. I found a lot of problems:
* yui3 and python-tx-tftp packages missing in precise (I backported them to the daily PPA for now) * when installing, there's nasty conflicts on /etc/maas/pserv.yaml and /etc/maas/maas_local_settings.py - probably ok to just let user reconfigure but if they miss the new settings things will not work. I don't know what policy dictates here. * The maas-provision package is not being removed * TFTP settings in pserv.yaml are commented out, plus: * pserv.yaml has an incorrect default port setting for TFTP * pserv.yaml has an incorrect generator setting * dnsmasq not disabled/uninstalled * TFTP not disabled/uninstalled * isc-dhcp-server not installed/enabled * maas-dhcp needs to change to generate the new dhcp config with "maas- provision generate-dhcp-config" Other problems I noticed: * syslog contained: Aug 23 16:23:24 maas kernel: [10491.309651] init: maas-pserv main process (26888) terminated with status 1 Aug 23 16:23:24 maas kernel: [10491.309698] init: maas-pserv main process ended, respawning over and over and there were no errors in pserv.log to help diagnose this. In this case I found out I had messed up the config file by running the pserv manually and examining stdout - the users really need to see these errors! https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1040465 * The pserv.yaml "generator" URL doesn't accept IP addresses in the host part https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1040458 * A booting node's PXE client shows "TFTP Access violation" on its console This is because the packaged TFTP doesn't contain some fixes we're carrying in the maas trunk branch. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/maas/+bug/1040475 * maas-import-pxe-files blows up https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1040462 -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maas-devel Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maas-devel More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
