I'm very new to Foreman and have spent the last couple of days setting it
up and playing around with the interface. I like what I've found so far,
and I'm looking forward to integrating it into our processes.
However, I have run into a blocker. I've installed AWS as a compute
resource and I'm trying to create host in EC2. I've filled out all the
pertinent info, except I can't select an operating system from the drop
down list. In Provisioning -> Operating Systems I have Ubuntu 12.04 in the
list, as I've configured the EC2 ENC script and have registered an EC2
instance with Foreman, so there is an operating system there. I also
tried creating another operating system also called Ubuntu 12.04, but the
New Host page still didn't have any operating systems listed.
Unfortunately, I'm unable to to provision a new host because it tells me I
require an operating system.
One other issue is that it tells me I need a provisioning template assigned
in order to create the node. However, I did create a finish template and
assigned it to the host group to which I'm assigning this new node. I also
linked the same template to the Ubuntu 12.03 operating system that is
configured in Foreman, yet on the operating system page on the new host
form, when I click "resolve" next to provisioning templates, it tells me no
templates are configured.
As I said I'm really new to this so I may have missed something obvious.
Can anyone point me in the right direction here?
Kind regards,
Guy
Hello Guy
did you associate the template in the Association tab?

Hi Jim,
Yes, the template is associated with both an operating system and with a
hostgroup and environment.
Thanks,

Hi Guy,
If you re-edit your operating system and go to the final tab, is there a
default template set there, or is the combobox blank?

Greg
Hi Greg,
Yep, the template I want to apply is set there as "final".

I will be adding some more AWS accounts to our 1.1 Foreman install today. I
will try and capture as much of the process for you as I can and build a
couple of test instances. I basically bumbled through Ohad's blog post and
it eventually worked.

I worked out what the problem was here. I had to edit the operating system
in Foreman and set the architecture to x86_64. Once I did that, I was able
to select an operating system after selecting an architecture in the new
host provisioning form.
I did run into another issue though; once I went through and provisioned a
new host, the Foreman page hung after I hit submit. I left it for about a
minute and eventually closed the page and restarted the web server.
However, I checked the EC2 console and the new instance had been created so
I'm not sure what happened. Any ideas?

are you using webrick? the progress bar only works if you have something
that can server multiple foreman connections (such as passenger).

No, I'm using passenger. It's not like the progress bar just doesn't show,
the entire page hangs (submit button is depressed, "working" cursor icon is
displayed) until I restart the web server. I can't even close the page and
reopen it as it just hangs. The server does get provisioned pretty much
straight away though.

Do you see anything your apache logs? (or error logs).
Is this 1.1? can you try again with 1.2?

Actually, I haven't yet upgraded to 1.2 as I did some further investigation
and set the logging mode to debug in foreman-proxy/settings.yaml. I'm now
getting some more info when I try to provision a new node. In the foreman
production.log, I gets to a point where it keeps outputting the following
text into the log, over and over:
Started GET "/tasks/07773504-c911-413e-9730-6bb63e6154e3" for
184.71.162.106 at Fri Jun 28 17:26:13 +0000 2013
Processing by TasksController#show as
Parameters: {"id"=>"07773504-c911-413e-9730-6bb63e6154e3"}
User Load (0.4ms) SELECT "users".* FROM "users" WHERE "users"."id" = 1
LIMIT 1
Setting current user thread-local variable to admin
Rendered tasks/_list.rhtml (0.8ms)
Completed 200 OK in 4ms (Views: 1.4ms | ActiveRecord: 0.7ms)
This corresponds to a progress bar on the web gui, which I had either never
noticed before or hadn't been showing up before. It appears above the new
host provisioning form, and gets to "running - Waiting for <instance name>
to come online" where it just hangs (see attached screenshot). Even after I
see that the instance is "running" in the AWS console, this progress bar
doesn't change, and the text block above just continually keeps getting
output to the log file.
So that being the case, does this indicate where the problem might lie?
Thanks,
Guy

I see… I assume you are running foreman inside EC2, or that at least the
public ip address is not reachable by foreman?

Is this 1.1? can you try again with 1.2?

Yes, my Foreman instance is running from within EC2. It's part of the
default security group, and every instance I've been trying to create is
also a member of the default security group so theoretically the foreman
server should be able contact these new instances.
Just out of interest, what exactly is happening at this point? Is the
foreman server trying to connect via SSH? It doesn't appear so, according
to the screenshot I attached, but I was curious as I don't think it will be
able to SSH once it does get to that point because I 'm not yet sure how
the keys are supposed to get onto the new servers. If it is supposed to
be connecting via SSH at this point, then that could be the cause of the
problem although I would expect it to return an error of some kind saying
so if that were the case.
Thanks for your help so far,
Guy

first, foreman by defaults tries to reach out via the public ip address,
not sure if thats being blocked by something.
secondly, foreman does try to ssh to the instance, when you created the
compute resource, a new key pair was created at ec2 console (you could find
it under foreman-<uuid> in your ec2 console.
using this key pair, foreman uploads a script (the output of the generated
template) and execute it on that system.

I had a problem with Rackspace cloud with a public and private IP address,
I don't know if it is a similar problem I editied the Apache foremam.conf
file and replaced the hard coded IP address with a * and Foreman worked.
You should ensure your Firewall allows systems to connect to 8140, you
might also want to consider using VPCs to manage group of servers.

Just out of interest, what exactly is happening at this point? Is the

to the screenshot I attached, but I was curious as I don’t think it will be
able to SSH once it does get to that point because I 'm not yet sure how
the keys are supposed to get onto the new servers. If it is supposed to
be connecting via SSH at this point, then that could be the cause of the
problem although I would expect it to return an error of some kind saying
so if that were the case.
I think there are two different issues here.
first, foreman by defaults tries to reach out via the public ip address,
not sure if thats being blocked by something.
secondly, foreman does try to ssh to the instance, when you created the
compute resource, a new key pair was created at ec2 console (you could find
it under foreman- in your ec2 console.
using this key pair, foreman uploads a script (the output of the generated
template) and execute it on that system.

So that being the case, does this indicate where the problem might lie?
I see… I assume you are running foreman inside EC2, or that at least
the public ip address is not reachable by foreman?

Do you see anything your apache logs? (or error logs).
Is this 1.1? can you try again with 1.2?

are you using webrick? the progress bar only works if you have

Hmm…when you say reach out via the public IP address, what protocol does
it use? Does it reach out via SSH, or is trying to connect via some other
method?
Also, I was aware of the foreman key pair that gets created, however I'm
not sure how the public key gets onto the actual instances. Am I supposed
to create an AMI that already has the public key added to authorized_keys
in some predefined account?
Thanks for all your help,
Guy

My apache conf already uses * instead of hard coded IPs, and my instances
are able to connect to port 8140 on the puppet master (which is also my
foreman server) as I can manually fire up instances and run puppet
successfully. I'll look into VPCs though, as I haven't yet played with that
option. Is there any specific reason why using a VPC instead might help
this particular issue, though?
Thank you,
Guy
