[Rdo-list] Can't Deploy Foreman with openstack-foreman-installer for Bare Metal Provisioning (undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass)
11:14 a.m.
Hi all,
I have been trying to test the OpenStack Foreman Installer with different combinations of
Foreman versions and of the installer itself (and even different versions of Puppet) with
no success so far.
I know that Packstack alone works but I want to go all the way with multiple hosts and
bare metal provisioning to eventually use it for large deployments and scale out Nova
Compute and other services seamlessly.
The error I get when running the foreman_server.sh script is always:
--------------
rake aborted!
undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
Tasks: TOP => db:seed
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
--------------
After that, if Foreman starts, there’s nothing in the "Host groups" section
which is supposed to be prepopulated by the foreman_server.sh script (as described in
http://red.ht/1jdJ03q).
The process I follow is very simple:
1. Install a clean RHEL 6.5 or CentOS 6.5
2. Enable EPEL
3. Enable the rdo-release repo:
a. rdo-release-havana-7: Foreman 1.3 and openstack-foreman-installer 1.0.6
b. rdo-release-havana-8: Foreman 1.5 and openstack-foreman-installer 1.0.6
c. rdo-release-icehouse-3: Foreman 1.5 and openstack-foreman-installer 2.0 (as a note
here, the SCL repo needs to be enabled before the next step too).
4. Install openstack-foreman-installer
5. Create and export the needed variables:
export PROVISIONING_INTERFACE=eth0
export FOREMAN_GATEWAY=192.168.5.100
export FOREMAN_PROVISIONING=true
6. Run the script foreman_server.sh from /usr/share/openstack-foreman-installer/bin
For 3a and 3b I also tried with an older version of Puppet (3.2) with the same result.
These are the full outputs:
3a: http://fpaste.org/97739/ (Havana and Foreman 1.3)
3b: http://fpaste.org/97760/ (Havana and Foreman 1.3 with Puppet 3.2)
3c: http://fpaste.org/97838/ (Icehouse and Foreman 1.5)
I’m sure somebody in the list has tried to deploy and configure Foreman for bare metal
installations (DHCP+PXE) and the documentation and the foreman_server.sh script suggest it
should be possible in a fairly easy way.
I filled a bug as it might well be one, pending confirmation:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1092443
Any help is really appreciated!
Many thanks.

After setting FOREMAN_PROVISIONING=false and running foreman_server.sh with the default
versions of Puppet (3.5) and Foreman (1.5) everything installed and the "Host
groups" in the "Configure" section are now populated.
I’d like to use provisioning (DHCP, DNS and PXE) and everything suggests it should be
possible so it looks like a bug.

Subject: [Rdo-list] Can't Deploy Foreman with openstack-foreman-installer for Bare

Hi all,
I have been trying to test the OpenStack Foreman Installer with different
combinations of Foreman versions and of the installer itself (and even
different versions of Puppet) with no success so far.
I know that Packstack alone works but I want to go all the way with multiple
hosts and bare metal provisioning to eventually use it for large deployments

--------------

undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
Tasks: TOP => db:seed
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
--------------
The above usually indicates there is something wrong with at least one puppet class.
Do you have openstack-puppet-modules installed?
Some of the devil's details:
foreman_server.sh triggers foreman's rake to seed its database.
The nil:NiClass means something is missing and usually when it happens, to be confirmed
with rake's trace/logs it's because at least one puppet class is wrong (not
validated).
The above is happening because seeding script also parses puppet classes' parameters
in order to inject them into Foreman.
Cheers,
Gilles

Do you have openstack-puppet-modules installed?
Some of the devil's details:
foreman_server.sh triggers foreman's rake to seed its database.
The nil:NiClass means something is missing and usually when it happens, to be confirmed
with rake's trace/logs it's because at least one puppet class is wrong (not
validated).
The above is happening because seeding script also parses puppet classes' parameters
in order to inject them into Foreman.
After modifying the script to use "rake —trace” this is what I got:
+ sudo -u foreman scl enable ruby193 'cd /usr/share/foreman; rake --trace db:seed
RAILS_ENV=production FOREMAN_PROVISIONING=true'
** Invoke db:seed (first_time)
** Execute db:seed

Are you by chance running foreman_server.sh from source? I've hit this
a few times when I checkout the source, put it in /root/ and then the
seed script fails because of permissions. If you are running from
source, make sure the puppet user can read the source directory.
Not sure is this applies in your case but it will cause the problem
you're seeing.

No, I’m using the script coming with the package. I tried two different versions, last one
2.0 which I think it’s the current one upstream.
Thanks for having a look.

If you're using vanilla packages then please fill a bug.
