** Tags removed: verification-done ** Tags added: verification-done-quantal verification-needed-precise ** Description changed: ============================== 1. Impact: cloud image creations can fail. This causes juju with local provider to fail. 2. Development fix: use --numeric-owner when un-tarring ubuntu images, to make sure that /home/ubuntu in the container is owned by the right ubuntu userid. 3. Stable fix: same as the development fix 4. Test case: - 1. add an ubuntu user if one does not yet exist on the host - make sure it is not uid 1000 - 2. lxc-create -t ubuntu-cloud -n c1 - 3. check /home/ubuntu in the container - it will be owned by the ubuntu userid on the host. - Additionally, when starting c1, you will be unable to log in as user ubuntu. + 1. add an ubuntu user if one does not yet exist on the host - make sure it is not uid 1000 + 2. lxc-create -t ubuntu-cloud -n c1 -- -r precise + 3. check /home/ubuntu in the container - it will be owned by the ubuntu userid on the host. + Additionally, when starting c1, you will be unable to log in as user ubuntu. 5. Regression potential: this should introduce no regressions, as it only makes sure that the owners of files in the container match the username-userid mapping in the container's password file. ============================== Permissions on the created lxc container somehow are reflecting the users /etc/password file: ubuntu@dpb-local-landscape-client-0:~$ cat /etc/passwd |grep landscape landscape:x:104:109::/var/lib/landscape:/bin/false ubuntu@dpb-local-landscape-client-0:~$ ll /etc/landscape total 12 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 12 17:48 ./ drwxr-xr-x 86 root root 4096 Oct 12 17:47 ../ -rw------- 1 999 root 164 Oct 12 17:48 client.conf ubuntu@dpb-local-landscape-client-0:~$ logout Connection to 10.0.3.143 closed. dpb@starbuck:dpb-local$ cat /etc/passwd |grep landscape landscape:x:999:999::/var/lib/landscape:/bin/false dpb@starbuck:dpb-local$ My hunch is where the tar happens from the mount of the downloaded image in lxc/templates/lxc-ubuntu-cloud -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066084 Title: Permissions mangled when creating rootfs from cloud images To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1066084/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
