[Bug 1973660] Re: Login screen not refreshing properly on vSphere

2022-05-17 Thread John Wolfe
One thing that comes to mind is to check the VMs hardware configuration.
The amount of memory available to the VM will affect the amount of
memory that can be dedicated to the graphics display.

In my Workstation, the recommended minimum memory is 2 GB for my Ubuntu 20.04 
guest
  - 2 virtual processors (1 core per processor)
  - graphics display will default to that currently configured for the host 
system (2560 x 1600 in my case)

If I reconfigure the VM with only 1 GB of memory, the desktop logon
screen only displays a part of the full gdm3 desktop logon screen.

Try increasing the VMs virtual memory or use a specific display monitor
resolution that works within the smaller virtual memory in use.

Hi Christen,

> $ modinfo fuse3

> 
> So that should not change.

Thanks for catching that error in the open-vm-tools-desktop.postinst
file.

> Furthermore in all situations where configure can auto-detect one or
the other it is wise to hard-select the one you want, so in the config
stage I added --with-fuse=fuse3.

I agree.   Auto-defect is fine for experimentation at the configure
level, selecting the specific configuration is necessary to coordinate
with the packaging.

Thanks.

At VMware, we have made the following straight forward changes in the
./debian/control file.

   Build-Depends:libfuse-dev ===> libfuse3-dev

   open-vm-tools Recommends:fuse ==> fuse3

   open-vm-tools-desktop Recommends:fuse ==> fuse3

and in ./debian/open-vm-tools-desktop.postinst

   Tested for and loaded fuse3.

Please advise if VMware needs to make any changes to their internal
Ubuntu open-vm-tools packaging.

Thanks.

[Bug 1944946] Re: Path of open-vm-tools libdeployPkgPlugin.so is now multi-arch compliant breaking cloud-init

2021-10-07 Thread John Wolfe
I was being conservative, not being aware of:
  - when the path fix will be made to cloud-init
  - when the next release of cloud-init (with the fix) will be available.

Open-vm-tools 11.3.5 on Ubuntu and Debian w/o the /usr/lib/open-vm-tools
symbolic link will have a dependency on the updated next release of
cloud-init.

I have raised the priority of the internal PR to guest customization has
for the cloud-init fix.

Please keep and eye out for a pull request.

2021-10-07 Thread John Wolfe
@Christian - Just got the test results.

The Service Discovery smoke test(s) PASSED.  The multi-arch layout does
not impact the SDMP plugin.

The Guest Customization team will be resolving the libdeployPkgPlugin check in 
the cloud-init project.
  - quickly, by adding the multi-arch paths to the list of paths to be searched 
for the .so
  - revise the guest customization availability check to not depend on the list 
of fixed paths.
(longer range fix)

In either case going forward, the /usr/lib/open-vm-tools symbolic link
should only be needed in 11.3.0 and 11.3.5 open-vm-tools.   It should
not be needed by OVT 12.0.0 and Ubuntu 22.04.

I share your impatience.  I have pinged the vROps team that is running
the SDMP smoke test.

John Savanyo has been cc'ed on that e-mail.

I agree with your assessment that the fix as proposed will work.  It
would be nice for the confirmation.

2021-09-29 Thread John Wolfe
@Christian

The SDMP team has confirmed that the only use of the
serviceDiscovery/scripts path and contents is by the service discovery
plugin.  That base of that path used by the SDMP compilation and make
install of the SDMP scripts is derived from $(libdir) which in turn is
derived from the configure script results.  There is no problem locating
the scripts in the existing multi-arch library location.

They have also confirmed that the scripts path has not "escaped" outside
of the open-vm-tools plugin.  There will be no problem as was seen with
cloud-init.

Still waiting for the vROps team smoke test results, but given the above
I do not think that there will be any problems.   I will let you know as
soon as I hear anything.

2021-09-28 Thread John Wolfe
Hi Christian,

We are certain that the SDMP plugin ./usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/open-vm-
tools/plugins/vmsvc/libserviceDiscovery.so can be found and loaded since
all the other vmsvc and vmusr plugins are successfully handled.

We are waiting on the vROps team 
  - to run some smoke test(s) that use the libserviceDiscovery.so
  - to confirm that serviceDiscovery/scripts/* absolute paths have not escape 
into other applications as happened in the cloud-init case.

If there is an escape, the patch for the symbolic link

 /usr/lib/open-vm-tools ==> /usr/lib//open-vm-tools

would compensate for any path escape while that escape is fixed down
stream.

2021-09-27 Thread John Wolfe
Hi Yuhua,

Please confirm that guest customization using cloud-init does, in fact,
work with with this ppa.

Also, while the SDMP plugin is locating the scripts based on the
installation directory, it would not hurt to run any basic SDMP test(s)
available to confirm that there are no issues associated with the
Muliarch packaging changes.

I am checking with the SDMP team that the script directory path has not
been used as an absolute path in other applications.

Thanks Yuhua,
John

Was the move of the open-vm-tools plugins from /usr/lib/open-vm-tools to
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/open-vm-tools an intentional change in the

Would it be feasible to repackage 11.3.0, adding a symbolic link from

VMware has not seen any problems with the beta image release at the end
of March.

Will download an iso from https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
to test, but if we should be using something other than the "current"
daily image, please provide a link.

[Bug 1911831] Re: open-vm-tools 11.2.5 has been released

2021-01-15 Thread John Wolfe
@Christian,

Per the 11.2.5 ReleaseNotes.md at https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-
tools/blob/stable-11.2.5/ReleaseNotes.md, previously reported issues
#467 and #468 have been fixed in this release.

As with the 11.2.0 OVT release, this release provides suggested vmtoolsd
pam configuration files for major Linux vendors. By default, the generic
pam configuration settings will be used by "make install". To select a
Linux vendor specific pam configuration, the following line on
"./services/vmtoolsd/Makefile"

 $(INSTALL) $(top_srcdir)/pam/generic
$(DESTDIR)/$(PAM_PREFIX)/pam.d/vmtoolsd

should be edited - replacing "generic" with "debian".
