** Description changed:
- Summary:
- The ceph-mgr-dashboard fails to load the user interface after upgrading the
ceph package to version 19.2.3-0ubuntu0.24.04.1 on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
+ [Impact]
- Instead of the login screen, the browser renders a completely blank
- white page. The browser console confirms that the server returns 404 Not
- Found errors for critical JavaScript files required to render the
- application.

+ Instead of the login screen, the browser renders a completely blank white

+ The browser console confirms that the server returns 404 Not Found errors for

+
+ This is a regression in 19.2.3, where the compiled frontend artifacts
+ (JavaScript bundles) were not correctly included in the final .deb package in
/usr/share/ceph/mgr/dashboard/frontend/dist/.
- Affected Package:
- * ceph-mgr-dashboard
- * Version: 19.2.3-0ubuntu0.24.04.1
- * Release: Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS (Noble Numbat)
+ This is because the JavaScript bundles were added to the d/clean file during
the
+ 19.2.3 release process. We are going to revert that change, back to the
d/clean
+ file from 19.2.1.
- Steps to Reproduce:
- 1. On a system running Ubuntu 24.04, install or upgrade to the affected
version:
- sudo apt install ceph-mgr-dashboard=19.2.3-0ubuntu0.24.04.1
+ [Testcase]
- 2. Enable the dashboard module:
- ceph mgr module enable dashboard
+ You first need a ceph cluster already deployed and running. We will be talking
+ to its mgr service from the reproducer system.
- 3. Navigate to the dashboard URL in a web browser:
- http://<mgr-ip>:8080/
+ Once that ceph cluster is deployed and operational:
+
+ $ sudo apt update
+ $ sudo apt install ceph cephadm ceph-mgr-dashboard
+
+ Bootstrap a ceph cluster on the VM:
+
+ $ sudo cephadm bootstrap --mon-ip <ceph-cluster-ip> --single-host-
+ defaults
+
+ After installation is done, the process will show the credentials needed for
the
+ dashboard. We can then log into it to make sure it's working.
+
+ $ sudo ceph mgr module enable dashboard
+
+ Then navigate to the dashboard in a webbrowser, and use the credentials from
+ the previous command.
+
+ http://<vm-ip>:8080 or http://<vm-ip>:8443
Expected Result:
The Ceph Dashboard login page should load successfully.
Actual Result:
* The browser displays a blank white page.
- * Browser Console/Network Tab: Requests for .js files (e.g., main.js,
runtime.js, or similar chunks) return 404 Not Found.
+ * Browser Console/Network Tab: Requests for .js files (e.g., main.js,
+ runtime.js, or similar chunks) return 404 Not Found.
- Scope and Root Cause:
- It is highly probable that this error affects all new Ubuntu packages derived
from this source, as the debian/clean file has been modified in all of them.
This suggests the aggressive cleaning or exclusion of build artifacts is a
systemic issue introduced by the recent packaging changes.
+ Alternatively, you can also just check to see if the files are present:
- Development Branch Status:
- This packaging issue is also present in the ubuntu/devel branch. A Merge
Proposal has already been created to fix the underlying build/clean logic in
the packaging source.
+ $ sudo apt install ceph-mgr-dashboard
+ $ ls -l /usr/share/ceph/mgr/dashboard/frontend/dist/*/*.js

- Evidence:
- Listing the directory /usr/share/ceph/mgr/dashboard/frontend/dist/ shows
missing JavaScript assets compared to previous working versions.
+ If you install the test packages, the JavaScript files will be present and the
+ dashboard will function as normal.
- The following command can be used to confirm the missing files (returns empty
list on affected systems):
- ls -l /usr/share/ceph/mgr/dashboard/frontend/dist/*/*.js | head -n 100
+ [Where problems can occur]
+
+ We are reverting d/clean back to its state in 19.2.1, that is, removing all
the
+ items added in the 19.2.3 SRU.
+
+ These were added for not-really-convincing reasons, and should just be
+ dropped.
+
+ The biggest difference is re-adding the JavaScript files back, so ceph
dashboard
+ can function again.
+
+ There are other files, namely the btrfs testsuite and ceph QA yaml files.
These
+ are not used during build and are not present in final packaging, and likely
+ will not cause any regressions to end users.
+
+ If a regression were to occur, users could copy back files from previous
+ packages, or will likely need to rollback until a fix is ready.
+
+ [Other info]
+
+ Luciano has summed up the uses of the other files in comment #21.
