Problem:
Running foreman-installer --scenario katello fails with:
/usr/share/gems/gems/kafo-6.4.0/lib/kafo/data_type.rb:31:in 'register_type': Data type Apache::LogLevel is already registered, cannot be re-registered (ArgumentError)
Expected outcome:
foreman-installer completes without error.
Foreman and Proxy versions:
3.1.1-1
Foreman and Proxy plugin versions:
Distribution and version:
Alma Linux 8.5
Other relevant data:
I originally successfully installed Foreman without Katello, including the Chef plugin (we’re a long-time Chef shop). Our successful install script is:
foreman-installer \
--enable-foreman-plugin-chef \
--enable-foreman-plugin-tasks \
--enable-foreman-proxy-plugin-chef \
--foreman-proxy-plugin-chef-client-name="boss" \
--foreman-proxy-plugin-chef-enabled="true" \
--foreman-proxy-plugin-chef-private-key="/etc/chef/client.pem" \
--foreman-proxy-plugin-chef-server-url="https://manage.chef.io/organizations/..." \
--foreman-proxy-plugin-chef-ssl-verify="true" \
--foreman-proxy-plugin-chef-ssl-pem-file="/etc/letsencrypt/live/..." \
--foreman-proxy-plugin-chef-version="present" \
--foreman-proxy-foreman-ssl-ca="/etc/letsencrypt/live/..." \
--foreman-proxy-foreman-ssl-cert="/etc/letsencrypt/live/..." \
--foreman-proxy-foreman-ssl-key="/etc/letsencrypt/live/..." \
--foreman-client-ssl-cert="/etc/letsencrypt/live/..." \
--foreman-client-ssl-key="/etc/letsencrypt/live/..." \
--foreman-client-ssl-ca="/etc/letsencrypt/live/..." \
--no-enable-puppet \
--foreman-server-ssl-crl=""
We subsequently realized we want to install Katello, so I’ve uninstalled Foreman, and am trying to reinstall it, adding --scenario katello to the script. But that fails with the error listed above. It even fails with a simple --help:
# foreman-installer --scenario katello --help

I don’t understand where Apache::LogLevel is already registered, and how to either unregister it, or tell foreman-installer to ignore it.
