hi all

After the migration to puppet4, I no longer have reporting in foreman

jsherrill: did you get a chance to test katello 3.3 and look at the content hosts subscription page?

lfisher: i did! i filed an issue

and am working on a fix

jsherrill: cool, do you still have the system up? can you look at the products page

sure

the headers don't look to line up with the columns due to the scroll bar

hopefull you have a scroll bar

or you need more products

hammer for loop FTW

jsherrill: yeah, I just looked at it and realized you probably wouldn't see it :) so I figured I would give more details

ah yeah i see it

let me check nightly

jsherrill: cool, I just like to make sure it isn't just my setup being weird

lfisher: yep, still an issue in nightly, mind filling an issue?

jsherrill: sure, I can do that, thanks for verifying the issues for me

np!

jsherrill: #18700

jsherrill: #18700 is http://theforeman.org/issues/18700 "Bug #18700: Product page headers do not line up with fields when scroll bar present - Katello - Foreman"

lfisher++ thanks!

np, I'm just happy to see things getting better

lfisher: Thanks. Ran into both of those yesterday and was getting ready to file some new issues

Hi, Can someone please help me with this ticket? Thanks http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/15793

hi IdoKaplan, it looks like that ticket was closed

What do you need help with exactly?

acidrainfall: trying to provisioning via the discovery plugin.

Are you on the latest version of Foreman?

Sorry, wrong ticket - http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/18415

IdoKaplan: What lzap was saying in his response to you was that the error is due to a MAC address collision

Are you 100% sure that host hasn't been managed preivously?

acidrainfall: Yes, i'm not using Foreman yet. I have started a POC and the basic issue is not working for me.

Is the host hardware?

or a VM?

acidrainfall: Tried VM and laptop

tonycoffman: yeah, I happened to see them so I thought I would point them out, but honestly as far as bugs go, they are low on my care about list, since things still work

acidrainfall: Can you please help?

IdoKaplan: Unfortunately I don't think I know what is wrong

acidrainfall: Do you have any suggestion what I can do?

hey folks, anyone know about when Puppet 4 will be officially supported and part of the installer?

IdoKaplan: Honestly I would try updating to 1.14.1

Oh, sorry, I misread your package list.

IdoKaplan: If you create a brand new VM and try this, does the issue happen every time?

acidrainfall: yes. tried multiple VMs and laptop

It certainly seems like a bug

lzap: are you around?

acidrainfall: So what I can do? :( what i'm doing wrong?

IdoKaplan: I'm not sure you did anything wrong

Do you have Foreman connected to any external services like DNS or DHCP?

acidrainfall: But I guess that there are a lot of users that using discovery.

Yeah there are, but that doesn't mean it's perfect :)

acidrainfall: Yes, of course - my active directory server.

You have it connected to Active Directory for DNS/DHCP?

Or just for authentication for logging in to the web interface?

acidrainfall: YES!!

Hmmm

acidrainfall: AD is my DNS and DHCP

acidrainfall: not the authentication

If you weren't aware previously, you can connect Foreman to AD for auth as well, but that's a side note

acidrainfall: Yes, I know, but the main business is the provisioning, if I cant do it, so LDAP is not important for me now.

acidrainfall: It's very frustrating because I have to build a data center with a lot of bare metal servers and Foreman is my project :(

I completely understand

frustrating: and i'm trying to make a lab in my office and it's not working...

IdoKaplan: Did you start on Foreman 1.13 and upgrade?

I'm trying to figure out why you have different versions of things installed

yes.

You may not like this answer

But my first recommendation is a clean 1.14 install

You can see how much time i'm trying to make it happen ... mutiple months.

That's how open source goes :)

Are you a Red Hat customer?

Yes, Installed on CentOS

I have do a clean 1.14, but why do you think that it will help ?

I have=can

Sometimes upgrades don't go quite right

and there is a bug on 1.13 with the discovery?

I believe so

15793

#15793 probably affected 1.13

acidrainfall: #15793 is http://theforeman.org/issues/15793 "Bug #15793: Quick provisioning does not set build mode - Discovery - Foreman"

Ok, I desperate. I will try... Thanks.

IdoKaplan: There are probably ways of troubleshooting this that wouldn't require a fresh install, but since you don't have any hosts registered, it would just be easier this way,.

If it won't work, Can I reach you again? Maybe you can help? Are you a developer in Foreman?
