hi,
This commit expose some kind of issue and cause openvswitch not
to start on clean systems.
If old conf.db file didn't exists it creates an empty conf.db with
the touch command.
Empty conf.db cause ovsdb-server not to start.
# /usr/share/openvswitch/scripts/ovs-ctl start
ovsdb-tool: ovsdb error: /etc/openvswitch/conf.db: cannot identify file type
Starting ovsdb-server ovsdb-server: ovsdb error: /etc/openvswitch/conf.db:
cannot identify file type
[FAILED]
If I remove the conf.db file (can leave the symbolic link in /etc)
then ovs starts fine.
# rm /var/lib/openvswitch/conf.db
# /usr/share/openvswitch/scripts/ovs-ctl start
/etc/openvswitch/conf.db does not exist ... (warning).
Creating empty database /etc/openvswitch/conf.db [ OK ]
Starting ovsdb-server [ OK ]
system ID not configured, please use --system-id ... failed!
Configuring Open vSwitch system IDs [ OK ]
Starting ovs-vswitchd [ OK ]
Enabling remote OVSDB managers [ OK ]
I'm not sure where it's better to fix this. either the spec here
not to create an empty file or in ovsdb/log.c to an accept empty conf.db,
or maybe even upgrade_db() in ovs-lib bash file to call create_db
even if conf.db exists but it's empty.
Thanks,
Roi
