Henrique, Geoffroy
For completeness, this morning I finished my latest OSCAR 6 build attempt,
which I started on friday afternoon from a brand-new, freshly installed
and updated CentOS 5.2 install (again, X65_64 arch since on a 4GB Q6600
with two NICs, eth1 being what the cluster talks through), done that
morning. At the initial "yum install oscar" stage it properly grabs all
five, most-recent oscar packages (and yume). It looked hopeful.
I still had to briefly drop back to a shell prompt to manually start
mysqld when prompted for a root MySQL password. After this were the usual
huge blocks of package names each time it installed one, making for an
enormous transcript of the session.
Bootstrapping finishes w/o significant error (just as before),
oscar_wizard proceeds exactly as before.
I get the same "ERROR during execution 512" and (possibly) more
importantly, the same complaints about "Impossible to install xxx" for
slocate, utempter, (blank - twice), and ia32 RPMS (for some reason), as
before (I have more commentary after this exerpt):

Client def and setup procedes normally as before. Since my motherboard
does not like ACPI in kernel 2.6.18-anything, and the "sis package" config
early in oscar_wizard didn't "take", I had to manually drop back to a
shell again and insert "acpi=off" after "APPEND" in
/tftpboot/pxelinux.conf/default. Again I specified the
"systemimager-multicast" install mode in "Setup Networking" instead of the
default "systemimager-rsync"... but after looking promising, the node
imaging stops with an error after 12 minutes, during the "Finalizing..."
stage; so close.
FYI.
I'll see if I can more usefully report where systemimager is failing on
the node in a subsequent email.

Henrique,
The "ERROR during execution 512" is actually not a real problem: the RPM list
file has comments and those comments are actually interpreted as packages, creating
errors when the system tries to install them. However, it does not prevent the
installation of others packages. Chris had issues with other packages, i am currently
investigating the problem (but it seems you do not have the problem). Note that this
problem was already in 5.1, the only difference is that now, we can catch the errors
which was not possible before. I also have a fix, but this based on a modification that
can only be included after the release of 6.0.1.
About the node issue, my feeling is that there is a de-synchronization between
SIS, the OSCAR database and the file system. I am working on the problem but
again it will have to wait the release of 6.0.1 before i could check something
in. And again, this is not a problem specific to oscar-6.x. If i manage to work
on that topic i will let you know, you may be interested in testing the new
capability that will deal with that.

Objet: [Oscar-users] Oscar 6.0 - Building Image Error
Hi there,
After some days of out, I'm now back to my oscar 6.0.1 cluster installation.
The bootstrap is OK, no errors in the process. Therefore, in the build image step, I receive the message in the console:
ERROR during execution 512
I'm using the --debug option, but the output is only this line, repeated sometimes. Despite this warning, the wizard says the image was successfully builded.
But, at the clients installation I receive the error in the client prompt:
rsync link_stat /oscarnode1 no such file or directory (2)
And the installation fails. I'm not sure if this errors are related.
I don't know to fix this problem, because I never seen this before.
Regards,
--
