Public bug reported: I have recently upgraded from Oneiric to Precise and noticed that 'euca- get-console-output <instance>' no longer returns data.
Some investigation reveals that there may be a regression where the libvirt template is set to log to a log file, but nova-compute is reading a fifo. Comparing an Oneirc template against a Precise template seems to confirm the difference. Could you please fix the template so that libvirt will log to a fifo? Instances that have been created seem to behave correctly, but only their console output is unavailable. Some investigations: ---------------------------- $ grep -c fifo /usr/share/pyshared/nova/virt/libvirt.xml.template 0 $ grep log /usr/share/pyshared/nova/virt/libvirt.xml.template <source path='${basepath}/console.log'/> $ dpkg-query --show nova-compute nova-compute 2012.1~e4~20120210.12574-0ubuntu1 ** Affects: nova (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/932787 Title: nova-compute: euca-get-console-output returns no data To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova/+bug/932787/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
