Geo API doesn't work on EL8 #109

Closed bedroge closed 2 years ago

bedroge commented 2 years ago

@ocaisa just noticed that his cvmfs client was complaining about the geo api. It turns out that this doesn't work on Stratum 1 servers running EL8, as they don't have the mod_wsgi package for Python 2, and the cvmfs_geo api only works with Python 2. Support for Python 3 seems to be available on the devel branch already: https://github.com/cvmfs/cvmfs/pull/2829

This also shows that it doesn't work (it does with the bgo-no Stratum 1):

$ curl "http://rug-nl.stratum1.cvmfs.eessi-infra.org/cvmfs/pilot.eessi-hpc.org/api/v1.0/geo/DIRECT/aws-eu-west1.stratum1.cvmfs.eessi-infra.org,azure-us-east1.stratum1.cvmfs.eessi-infra.org,bgo-no.stratum1.cvmfs.eessi-infra.org,rug-nl.stratum1.cvmfs.eessi-infra.org"

So, would be good to also add this to some test script/suite somewhere.

This should be fixed in CernVM-FS 2.9.1, see also https://sft.its.cern.ch/jira/browse/CVM-2052

bedroge commented 2 years ago

Fixed in 2.9.2 (see https://cvmfs.readthedocs.io/en/2.9/cpt-releasenotes.html), which I've installed on the affected Stratum 1 servers.
