Public bug reported: I installed cobbler on a kvm vm and wish to use it to deploy vm.
I try to deploy a ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso system that i have imported in cobbler: mkdir /home/ubuntu/iso sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/ubuntu/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso /home/ubuntu/iso sudo cobbler import --path=/home/ubuntu/iso/ --name=precise sudo cobbler sync I know the iso is ok because i used it to install the cobbler system itself. Now, when i deploy a system with cobbler, it stop when trying to access a mirror. /var/log/syslog of the failing system tells something like: choose-mirror[3474] DEBUG command: wget -q http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu//dists/precise/Release -O - | grep -E '^(Suite|Codename):' choose-mirror[3474] WARNING **: broken mirror: invalid Suite or Codename in Release file for $suite Now, from the hypervisor, a tcpdump show that the vm was able to access http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu//dists/precise/Release ############################## GET /ubuntu//dists/precise/Release HTTP/1.1 Host: gb.archive.ubuntu.com User-Agent: Wget Connection: close HTTP/1.1 200 OK ... ... ############################### I can also wget it by hand on a console on the machine being installed, and the file i get actually contains lines such as: Suite: precise Codename: precise Things works ok if I import an iso with "cobbler-ubuntu-import precise- amd64" though.
