Cannot delete provisioning templates

Oleg_Mcnoleg · August 13, 2014, 10:33am

Hi,

I am trying to tidy up our Foreman 1.4.1 instance but cannot delete any old
provisioning templates.

I click delete, then OK, the page refreshes but the template is still
listed.

I have unassociated Operating Systems and tried setting safemode_render to
false

I still cannot delete PXE Linux templates, provisioning templates or
snippets.

I am logged in as Administrator.

I get this in /var/log/foreman/production.log

Started DELETE "/config_templates/30-puppet-repo-redhat-6-4-x86" for 10.3.

Failed to save:

It looks like a permission issue to me, but I'm not sure where to make the
changes?

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

One thought - foreman_bootdisk had a bug at one point which prevented
deletion of templates. Do you have it installed, and is it older than
v2.0.6? (I can't remember which version introduced the bug off the top
of my head.)

Yes, I was running v2.0.2 of the boot_disk plugin. I have updated to v2.0.8
which fixed the issue.Many thanks for that.
