[Bug 562189] Re: AttributeError: 'Libvirt' object has no attribute 'vm'

2011-06-09 Thread Richard Cottrill
For the issue I reported above, I believe this is a bug. There are two checks 
for pre-existing VMs, and they differ:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/VMBuilder/plugins/libvirt/__init__.py
line 54:if hostname in self.all_domains() and not 
self.context.overwrite:
line 80:if hostname in self.all_domains() and not self.vm.overwrite:

Changing line 80 to match line 54 prevents this error.

Line 80 throws an error when run:

[Bug 795358] [NEW] vmbuilder script fails on deploy/cleanup

2011-06-09 Thread Richard Cottrill
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python-vm-builder

Originally attached to bug #562189

I believe this is a bug. There are two checks 
for pre-existing VMs, and they differ:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/VMBuilder/plugins/libvirt/__init__.py
line 54:if hostname in self.all_domains() and not

line 80:if hostname in self.all_domains() and not self.vm.overwrite:

Changing line 80 to match line 54 prevents this error. I believe this is
an ok fix. Consider splitting this into a function, rather than copying
and pasting code, if these are supposed to be identical lines.

[Bug 562189] Re: AttributeError: 'Libvirt' object has no attribute 'vm'

2011-06-07 Thread Richard Cottrill
In current Natty, I get a slightly different version of this (output
below). The same error occurs, but at the cleaning up step. The
make_vm.sh blow contains the same vmbuilder command as above. Should
this be raised as a separate bug?

Thanks,

Richard

[Bug 725150] [NEW] Order of commands for install from other Linux is wrong

2011-02-25 Thread Richard Cottrill
Public bug reported:

The step in the guide to run MAKEDEV generic comes before the proc
filesystem is mounted; it throws a lot of errors (I recall couldn't
read from /proc/...) . I don't believe (but am happy to be corrected)
that there's any issue mounting /proc beforehand.

In my case, I mounted /proc, and re-ran MAKEDEV (no output). I now have
a running system. BTW, I tried every other variation of Ubuntu installer
and this (run from the Desktop LiveCD) was the only one that would work
for me. Some of the problems are of my own making, but others are to be
filed as bugs shortly.

biscuit:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:Ubuntu 10.10
Release:10.10

As it's not a software bug per se, I don't have the version number. It's
the one on the public Ubuntu website ( https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10
/installation-guide/amd64/linux-upgrade.html )

Re: [Bug 335154] Re: unreliable network connection can cause update-manager to delete whole system

2009-03-16 Thread Richard Cottrill
Hi Michael,

Please find the directory contents attached as tgz.

Any ideas how I might get this disk back towards working? I recall
there's something like/called debbootstrap, but I'm not sure where
to start.

Thanks,

Richard

2009/3/16 Michael Vogt michael.v...@ubuntu.com:
 Thanks a lot for the log.

 It is a bit mysterious what happend, even with the log. It looks like
 the u-m thought that it was able to do a update from your mirror, but
 the Packages files that it got were empty. If you could add the content
 of /var/lib/apt/lists ads well, that would be most appreciated. I added
 extra paranoia code to ensure this does not happen anymore to the
 obsoletes calculation and extra care to the update code. This should
 hopefully fix the problem. Still, the contents of /var/lib/apt/lists
 will be helpful to diagnose it further.

 Thanks,
  Michael

Sorry for the delay. gzipped tar of the directory is attached. Let me
know if there's anything else I can add.

 Thanks for your bugreport.

 Could you please attach the files in /var/log/dist-ugprade from the bad
 upgrade? This sounds pretty bad.

[Bug 335154] [NEW] unreliable network connection can cause update-manager to delete whole system

2009-02-26 Thread Richard Cottrill
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

Hello,

I was struggling with an unreliable Internet connection for some time,
and it would drop out semi-frequently (new DSL line, connected via
router, not direct to my PC). This is not ideal, but the consequesnses
were a surprise.

My expectation (please correct me if I am wrong) was that update manager
would attempt to download all the packages required, and on failure
exit. At this point, I could restart update manager and continue
downloading pretty much were it left off, as the previously completed
packages would be found in the cache and skipped. I didn't worry about
corruption of packages as they're signed, and wouldn't get past dpkg.

What happened is a bit unclear, as my system is not bootable. I can
mount the disk for forensic purposes though. It appears that all of the
packages were marked as obsolete, and uninstalled. Essentially sudo ls
-Rf / via dpkg. The system is not bootable, the root partition is
essentially ruined.

This was an update of 8.04 LTS (up to date at start of this process), to
the (not LTS) 8.10 version. I'm happy to help find out how this happened
so other uses don't have to suffer. If some way to rescue the machine
cold be found, then that would be great, too.

Thanks for all your hard work,

Richard
