Hi Parker, Thanks a lot for your reply. I have tried to add the deployment user to these groups but it still failed with the same error. Then I tried to change the Ansible script to force it to use sudo to do the command and it works.
For script [1], change it to be like this: - name: Configure SSH key for local user become: yes become_method: sudo user: … … Regagrds, Dan [1] https://github.com/opnfv/releng-xci/blob/master/xci/playbooks/configure-localhost.yml#L83 From: Parker Berberian [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, July 12, 2019 8:57 PM To: xudan (N) <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [opnfv-tech-discuss] [XCI] Failed to deploy XCI Hi Dan Xu, This seems like a bug if XCI is not using `sudo` to change group settings. However, you should be able to work around this by adding the groups to your user manually. In my XCI deploy, the deployment user has these groups: "root, wheel, kvm, qemu, docker, libvirt". I'm not sure which are required by xci, but there is no harm to adding them all to your user. If you manually add these groups to your xd user with `sudo usermod -aG <group_name> xd` then XCI should skip the step that is giving you trouble.

The detailed error message and required ENV can be found in the attachment. I used user ‘xd’ and have added ‘xd ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL’ to sudoers. Also SSH key are generated before the deploy. xd@ubuntu:~$ ll ~/.ssh/ total 20 drwxrwxr-x 2 xd xd 4096 Jul 11 15:17 ./ drwxr-xr-x 7 xd xd 4096 Jul 11 15:05 ../ -rw------- 1 xd xd 1675 Jul 11 14:59 id_rsa -rw-r--r-- 1 xd xd 391 Jul 11 14:59 id_rsa.pub -rw-r--r-- 1 xd xd 222 Jul 11 15:17 known_hosts Also I can successfully use command “sudo usermod –d /home/abc abc” to change user ‘abc’’s home with user ‘xd’. Did anyone meet the same problem before? Or do anyone know how to solve this? BR, Dan Xu -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
