Description

Hi

I built a new technique with NCF builder, containing my own generic method.
Policies can't be updated due to st file missing on

/rudder/configuration-repository/techniques/ncf_techniques/TECH_NAME/1.0/

The exact message is:

Policy update error for process '55' at 2014-11-26 11:21:22  ⇨ Cannot write configuration node  ⇨ Error when 
trying to open template 'TECH_NAME/1.0/rudder_reporting.st'. Check that the file exists and is
correctly commited in Git, or that the metadata for the technique are corrects.

If i "touch" an empty st file like 'rudder_reporting.st', its seems to be ok.

Hi,

Thanks!

Some more context:

The technique is built from a new generic method. The generic method was added in /var/rudder/configuration-repository/ncf/30_generic_methods and then appear in ncf-builder.
The technique correctly generates the csv file for reports and metadata.xml, but no 'rudder_reporting.st' (because, a priori, none id needed).

When a rule try to use the technique and promise are generated, the error message about the missing rudder_reporting.st appears.

Rudder version is 2.11.3.

Jean-Marie, if possible, could you attach or copy/paste the generated metadata.xml ?

Thanks

So, the metadata is requiring "rudder_reporting.st" with the line: "<TML name="rudder_reporting"/>".

Now, we need to know why it is so and:

1/ if it was actually NOT required, why the rudderify script generated a bad metadata.xml,
2/ if it WAS required, why the rudderify script didn't generated the correct "rudder_reporting.st" file.

Could you give us the ncf technique (should be located in /var/rudder/configuration-repository/ncf/50_techniques/NAME_OF_TECHNIQUE/xxx.cf ? Thanks

i deleted the technique yesterday. i make another test this morning...

I have created another technique based on 2 generics.

here is the technique :

  1. @name TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE
  2. @description TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE
  3. @version 1.0

bundle agent TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE {
methods:
"method_call" usebundle => Os_SuSE_Version("11"),
ifvarclass => "any";
"method_call" usebundle => Os_SuSE_patchlevel("1"),
ifvarclass => "Os_SuSE_Version_11_kept";
"method_call" usebundle => file_create("/root/TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE"),
ifvarclass => "Os_SuSE_patchlevel_1_kept";
"method_call" usebundle => file_ensure_lines_present("/root/TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE", "This is a SLES 11 Service Pack 1"),
ifvarclass => "file_create__root_TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE_repaired";
}

In this case, i have no metadata or st file.

Jean Marie,

I have trouble reproducing this issue, I created a very similar technique to yours, with the technique builder.
It lies in /var/rudder/configuration-repository/ncf/30_generic_methods/TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE/TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE.cf
I added the technique in the active technique librairy, and I do have metadata.xml and rudder_reporting.st files in /var/rudder/configuration-repository/techniques/ncf_techniques/TEST_ENSURE_SLES_FILE/1.0

My guess is that there may be an issue with the generic methods you created; is there a way for you to send them to us ?

Updated by Jean Marie ARIES over 9 years ago

Hi Nicolas,

See attachments.
This is the two generics I used to make the test.

Ok, we have two error in one:
- the script that generates the technique doesn't properly looks for the user generted generic method
- the git post commit that generates the technique doesn't catch the error, and silently fails

Hi Jean-Marie,

The underlying issue was fixed in http://www.rudder-project.org/redmine/issues/5865
To fix your issue, you can copy the file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Normation/ncf/master/tools/ncf_rudder.py to /usr/share/ncf/tools/ncf_rudder.py on your server, restart httpd service, and update your technique.
It should fix everything
