Hello,
I've been unsuccessfully trying to make work a custom yalm script with the cloud-init option in 3.4.1. All other native UI parameters are correctly configured (hostname...)
My goal is to change the keyboard layout: write_files: - content: | # My new /etc/sysconfig/keyboard file KEYTABLE="fr" MODEL="pc105" LAYOUT="fr" KEYBOARDTYPE="pc" path: /etc/sysconfig/keyboard permissions: '0644'
I can't see what is wrong and there is nothing into cloud-init logs on the guest (/var/log/clou-init-output.log). isn't it in /var/log/cloud-init.log ?
Is it possible to see the whole yalm file generated by the engine somewhere?
the cloud init data is attached to the vm as a cd-rom you can mount it locally and look inside the drive name is config-2 (look for it with blkid) for me on fedora 19 it always appear in /dev/sr1
First look at the mounted content as Omer suggested and take a look if the YAML output as you expected. You can also try to set the data that is written in the "custom script" commit: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-engine.git;a=commit;h=d46ebd8712f369b... see if adding this content is working for your setup: write_files: - content: | # some file content path: /root/myfile
This sample was tested and worked under RHEL 6 and Fedora 19. Please note that you need to add a tab/4 spaces as shown above.
What OS and what version of cloud-init you are using?
Le 01/06/2014 20:00, Shahar Havivi a écrit : that's it, I finally managed to make it work after many an many tests, that wasn't so trivial. First I followed your advices and I successfully tested the sample script you suggested without modify it. Then each time I attempted to add a line to the same file, it wasn't executed anymore. I read the file with cat -T /media/openstack/latest/user_data and then noticed that the lines weren't uniformly formated : some were with tab and other ones with 8 spaces. Following "Please note that you need to add a tab/4 spaces as shown above" I added tab on every lines related to content of the file, but it didn't work. I began again with only 8 spaces and then it ran. Seems YAML to be very format sensitive and it is not clear enough when begining this kind of job, so that I hope my leak will help many other ones. I think the custom script field in the UI is not helpful because it is impossible to insert a line, when doing a CR it leads to the end of file, and it is a behaviour which easily leads to format error. It could be a good idea to refuse validating OK if any tab is detected there. Can I have your feeling about this?
The problem was the CR at the end of the "custom script" field, or any CR?
