[Bug 461156] Re: User data is not parsed correctly by Eucalyptus in some cases
Test case A: A1 euca-run-instances -k $MYKEY --user-data FOO $EMI -t c1.medium A2 ssh -i $MYKEYPRIV ubu...@$ip 'wget -q http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data -O -'; echo Expected results: A2 should return FOO Test case B: B1 euca-run-instances -k $MYKEY --user-data FOO $EMI -t c1.medium B2 ssh -i $MYKEYPRIV ubu...@$ip 'wget -q http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data -O -'; echo Expected results: B2 should return FOO With unpatched euca2ools and unpatched eucalyptus: Test A fails with A2 returning Rk9P instead of FOO Test B fails with B2 returning IDw8IEZPTyA- instead of FOO With patched euca2ools (from smoser PPA) and unpatched eucalyptus: Test A : PASS Test B fails with B1 returning 403 Forbidden Note that python-boto does encode UserData using base64.b64encode (not urlsafe_b64encode as suggested in comment 13). The 403 Forbidden issue probably comes from URL decoding hitting special characters in HmacV2Handler.java, since they are no longer protected by double base64 encoding. Usage of canonicalString.replaceAll(\\+,%20) in there seems particularly relevant, since FOO translates to IDw8IEZPTyA+ -- User data is not parsed correctly by Eucalyptus in some cases https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/461156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to eucalyptus in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 461156] Re: User data is not parsed correctly by Eucalyptus in some cases
To fix this issue an SRU is needed for karmic: 1. fix euca-run-instances to only encode user-data once to mimic what ec2-run-instances does 2. fix eucalyptus soap|rest interface to not fail when user-data is sent by euca-run-instances. ** Description changed: User data supplied using euca-run-instances --user-data-file is not decoded before being presented to the instance. Inside the instance, curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data; should fetch the decoded user data, whereas eucalyptus will return a base64 and url encoded string. This breaks ec2-run-user-data from the ec2-init package, rendering instance configuration using the user-data mechanism unusable. EC2 documentation at http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/2007-03-01/DeveloperGuide/AESDG-chapter-instancedata.html states that EC2 will return decoded data (i don't have a ec2 account so i can't confirm this): The user data must be base64-encoded before being submitted to the API.

[Bug 461156] Re: User data is not parsed correctly by Eucalyptus in some cases
Documented at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicKoala/ReleaseNotes#UEC
%20user-data%20not%20usable%20by%20guest%20instances:
When user data is passed to an instance started with {{{euca-run-
instances}}} (using either the {{{-d}}}, {{{--user-data}}} option or the
{{{-f}}}, {{{--user-data-file}}} option), the data returned at
{{{http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data}}} will be base64-encoded.
{{{ec2-init}}} is unable make use of this user data because it must be
decoded before use. A fix for this issue is expected to be provided in
a post-release update immediately after the Ubuntu 9.10 release.
