Hi, I use this XML RPC call to create a virtual machine:
res = client.system.provisionVirtualGuest(key, 1000010025, "xml_rpc_vhost", "fedora_kickstart_profile" ) that fails with: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./xml.px", line 19, in <module> res = client.system.provisionVirtualGuest(key, 1000010025, "xml_rpc_vhost", "fedora_kickstart_profile" ) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1199, in __call__ return self.__send(self.__name, args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1489, in __request verbose=self.__verbose File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1253, in request return self._parse_response(h.getfile(), sock) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1392, in _parse_response return u.close() File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 838, in close raise Fault(**self._stack[0]) xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault -1: 'redstone.xmlrpc.XmlRpcFault: unhandled internal exception: XmlRpcException calling cobbler.'> so I digged a bit and it fails in CobblerVirtualSystemCommand.java at: setupVirtAttributes(details.getMemMb().intValue(), details.getDiskGb().intValue(), details.getVcpus().intValue(), details.getDiskPath()); the details.getDiskPath() returns NULL and that raises an exception. I don't understand the code perfectly so I'm not sure if that's a bug or a problem on my side that details.getDiskPath() returns nothing. I added this patch to the code which sets the diskPath in the details object and that solves the problem and the job for creating a virtual machine is scheduled. Can someone shed some light into this for me? --- a/java/code/src/com/redhat/rhn/manager/kickstart/cobbler/CobblerSystemCreateCommand.java +++ b/java/code/src/com/redhat/rhn/manager/kickstart/cobbler/CobblerSystemCreateCommand.java @@ -17,6 +17,8 @@ package com.redhat.rhn.manager.kickstart.cobbler; import com.redhat.rhn.common.conf.ConfigDefaults; import com.redhat.rhn.common.validator.ValidatorError; import com.redhat.rhn.domain.action.Action; +import com.redhat.rhn.domain.action.kickstart.KickstartGuestAction; +import com.redhat.rhn.domain.action.kickstart.KickstartGuestActionDetails; import com.redhat.rhn.domain.kickstart.KickstartData; import com.redhat.rhn.domain.server.NetworkInterface; import com.redhat.rhn.domain.server.Server; @@ -253,6 +255,11 @@ public class CobblerSystemCreateCommand extends CobblerCommand { if (!StringUtils.isBlank(mediaPath)) { ksmeta.put(KickstartUrlHelper.COBBLER_MEDIA_VARIABLE, this.mediaPath); + KickstartGuestActionDetails details = ((KickstartGuestAction)scheduledAction).getKickstartGuestActionDetails(); + if (details.getDiskPath() == null) { + details.setDiskPath(this.mediaPath); + ((KickstartGuestAction)scheduledAction).setKickstartGuestActionDetails(details); + } } if (!StringUtils.isBlank(getKickstartHost())) { ksmeta.put(SystemRecord.REDHAT_MGMT_SERVER, -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer Home: http://www.suse.de/~ug - Blog: http://suse.gansert.net listening to: "Run For The Night" by Blind Guardian _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-devel mailing list Spacewalk-devel@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-devel
