undefined method `display_bootdisk_link_if_authorized' for #<#<Class:0x0000000aacff80>:0x007f422078a

I've recently started getting this error very persistently when trying to
open any host status page on Foreman 1.6.1 with bootdisk 3.2.0

What can I do?

NoMethodError
*undefined method display_bootdisk_link_if_authorized&#39; for #&lt;#&lt;Class:0x0000000aacff80&gt;:0x007f422078a848&gt;* app/views/hosts/show.html.erb:4:in_04745700c0a93e04447df04d227f2249'
app/models/concerns/foreman/thread_session.rb:33:in clear_thread&#39; lib/middleware/catch_json_parse_errors.rb:9:incall'

Could you raise a bug here please?
http://projects.theforeman.org/projects/bootdisk/issues/new

It'd be useful if you could include the OS and packages you're running
so I can see if I can reproduce it.

Cheers,

Hi Dominic,

I figured out the issue occurs when loading in Foreman Salt plugin:
http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/8009

I think 'service httpd restart' should fix it after installing the salt
plugin - can you confirm?

This only happens on Debian, because plug-in packages don't cause
passenger to restart while the RPM ones do.

I can confirm that that didn't solve my problem :wink:
Turns out the problem is that both Salt plugin and Bootdisk plugin try to
extend the same classes, which leads to an ordering problem.
A proposed patch (which works for me) is in the bug now (in
PR https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/pull/1874)

Which is a well-known nuisance to us by now :wink:
