Vsphere is not a recognized compute provider

Support
1

I'm not sure when this error started occurring, but I first noticed it
today when attempting to a delete a host from the Foreman GUI. I'm running
Foreman 1.3.1 on CentOS 6.4, apache 2.4.9, passenger 4.0.38, ruby 1.8.7.

It sounds like this is something fog-related, but I've never had an issue
before. I'm not sure how to tell what version of fog foreman is looking
at, so let me know if I can give more info than this:

me@foremanhost:/usr/local/foreman> gem list fog

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

fog (1.19.0, 1.18.0, 1.15.0, 1.9.0)

Here's the steps to reproduce the issue:

http://foremanhost:4000/compute_resources/new
Provider: VMware

On next page, I enter credentials for my vcenter server and click Load
Datacenters and then I get the error: "vsphere is not a recognized compute
provider"

I also get this when attempting to delete a host that is tied to one of my
existing compute resources.

On a related note, I tried to upgrade to 1.4.2 recently, ran into some
issues, then tried 1.3.2 which went smoothly, but thought this issue was a
bug in 1.3.2 so I went back down to 1.3.1. Not sure if this crazy upgrade
screwed up something, perhaps fog. As far as my install goes, I cloned
the foreman git repo to /usr/local/foreman then I do "cd /usr/local/foreman
&& git pull && git checkout tags/1.3.1 && bundle install".

Thanks for any help!

Looks like I'm getting this error for ALL compute providers, and not just
VMware.

I restored my foreman install from a backup from a few days ago and good to
go now. Not sure what the heck happened. Moving forward, I'm going to put
foreman on a separate host and let the foreman-installer do all the work
for me :).
