Error at task labipa : Install FreeIPA packages

[rchincholkar]

Hey guys,

Tried to setup lab environment as per instructions and came accross following error at ansible task - labipa : Install FreeIPA packages.

TASK [labipa : Install FreeIPA packages] ***************************************
failed: [labipa] (item=[u'haveged', u'ipa-server', u'ipa-server-dns', u'bind-dyndb-ldap']) => {"changed": true, "failed": true, "item": ["haveged", "ipa-server", "ipa-server-dns", "bind-dyndb-ldap"], "msg": "Error unpacking rpm package python-urllib3-1.10.2-3.el7.noarch\n"

***** Cropped error message due to long text *****

Figured out that the issue was there for installing python-urllib3 on labipa.

Tried installing python-urllib3 manually on labipa VM,

# yum install python-urllib3
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

Error unpacking rpm package python-urllib3-1.10-2.fc21.noarch
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/packages/ssl_match_hostname: cpio: rename

Found the workaround as follows - uninstall urllib2 on labipa using pip

# pip uninstall urllib3

And then did

$ vagrant up 

and it worked.

Just wanted to, is this recommended? Also if it is recommended please add it in ansible playbook.

Thanks,

Hello Rahul,

Thanks for taking time to contribute this repo was abandoned for almost a year right now I am planning to review the old structure and may then do some refactoring to make more user friendly by creating a pre-backed vagrant boxes to relief the user from the long process of provisioning while the content of this repository will be used to create these boxes using hashicorp packer I have already created a sample project on how to use packer to create Vagrant boxes you may check it on this link

@AnwarYagoub Ohh Okay! Thanks for your reply :) I will do some research on packer.
