5 years ago It fails on these lines:
# Keep track of deleted uids and gids.
my $uidMapFile = "/var/lib/nixos/uid-map";
my $uidMap = -e $uidMapFile ? decode_json(read_file($uidMapFile)) : {};
my $gidMapFile = "/var/lib/nixos/gid-map";
my $gidMap = -e $gidMapFile ? decode_json(read_file($gidMapFile)) : {};
Seems to be the same issue as https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/26788 . Where are these files supposed to come from? I would assume /var/lib/nixos/uid-map doesn't exist when you first start up a Nixos test vm... so why is there nul-bytes inside that file?

5 years ago Okay I can only reproduce when running the tests interactively like:
$(nix-build ./test.nix -A driver)/bin/nixos-run-vmsIt succeeds when running:
nix-build ./test.nixFor some reason the file is created, but is empty:
From the interactive VM:
> print($machine->succeed("wc /var/lib/nixos/uid-map"))
machine: must succeed: wc /var/lib/nixos/uid-map
machine: exit status 0
(0.01 seconds)
0 0 665 /var/lib/nixos/uid-map

4 years ago I guess by:
now look at the logs
you mean the following output:

machine# starting systemd...Is that right?
Also,
0 0 665 /var/lib/nixos/uid-map
means that the files is 665 bytes in size.
When running print($machine->succeed("wc /var/lib/nixos/uid-map && hexdump -C /var/lib/nixos/uid-map")) I get:
0 0 665 /var/lib/nixos/uid-map
