Thanks very much for testing this out. I appreciate the help.
The problem with small is that something that used to depend on initscripts
no longer does, so you have to specify it explicitly. I'll fix it in the
next release, in the interim its a one line fix.
The fix:
Add "initscripts" to /vz/template/fedora/config/small.list
The problem with Debian Sarge doesn't happen to me. Debian Sarge got
demoted, it was moved from the primary servers to the archive servers. I
can think of two possibilities. Check your /etc/pkg-cacher.conf file to
make sure the path_map has an entry for debian-archive. The other
possibility is that the server isn't quite as reliable as the primary ones
and it was down. You should be able to tell from checking the
/var/log/pkg-cacher/error.log file. If you still can't tell what the
problem is then do a "kill -USR1" to the pkg-cacher process to enable debug
output. Retry the vzpkgcache command and then send me the
/var/log/pkg-cacher/error.log and I'll see if I can figure it out.

Subject: [Users] New pkg-cacher and vztmpl2 [testing results]
Robert,
I upgraded my test box to your latest versions of vzpkg2, pkg-cacher and
the vztmpl packages. Test box: HP DL380 G5 with 32GB of RAM running RHEL
5.2 x86_64. Config used to build containers was a generic generated by
vzpslit -n 32. I used pkg-cacher in stand alone mode running on the host
node.
OS Template Build Testing
-------------------------
I ran build tests on all 48 combinations. Of the 48, 6 would not build.
Here are the ones that wouldn't build and their error messages:
1) debian-sarge-i386-default
E: Failed getting release file
http://openvz2.cs.montana.edu:3142/debian-archive/dists/sarge/Release
2) debian-sarge-i386-minimal
E: Failed getting release file
http://openvz2.cs.montana.edu:3142/debian-archive/dists/sarge/Release
3) fedora-8-i386-small
mv: cannot stat `/vz/root/100001/etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo': No such file or
directory
ERROR: Script install-post failed
4) fedora-8-x86_64-small
mv: cannot stat `/vz/root/100001/etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo': No such file or
directory
ERROR: Script install-post failed
5) fedora-9-i386-small
mv: cannot stat `/vz/root/100001/etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo': No such file or
directory
ERROR: Script install-post failed
6) fedora-9-x86_64-small
mv: cannot stat `/vz/root/100001/etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo': No such file or
directory
ERROR: Script install-post failed
Oddly enough fedora-7-*-small built just fine. I wonder what happened
with debian-sarge.
OS Template Testing
-------------------
After building 42 OS Templates, I created containers out of all of the
ones marked "default" assuming that if the "default" flavor worked the
"minimal" ones would too.
I did the following to test the containers:
1) Enter test - I verified I could "vzctl enter" the container and that
the pty's were in working order
2) Network test - I verified that the venet0:0 interface within the
container had the assigned address and that networking was functional
3) Server app test - If it was running apache (CentOS and Fedora) I
verified that I was able to pull up the default webpage from another
machine on the network
4) Package manager test - I tested the package manager by installing mc,
nano and (if needed) psmisc. By default each container was configured to
use the pkg-cacher cache and package manager performance was snappy.
I ran into ZERO failures.. all OS Templates worked wonderfully.
