Debops template issues #34

Open chekolyn opened 6 years ago

chekolyn commented 6 years ago

I was wondering if anyone is having issues creating containers with the debops templates. It seems that I can't create a container, looks like the issue is from debootstrap and failing to download the rootfs.

I'm able to create a debian container with the standard debian template but the templates differ from each other considerably.

It seems to be an issue with debootstrap unable to download the packages... Can you try creating a normal debian template, see if that works? if it does, it might indicate an issue with the lxc-debops script.

NB: debops.lxc role was refreshed a bit in the DebOps monorepo where the main development now happens. You might want to consider switching to it.

Hey thanks for the suggestion. Looks like I was using the latest Debops monorepo; and I did a small test by installing the template from this repo and I was able to create the container. Just out of curiosity, don't know if you are having the same issues with the monorepo template.

@chekolyn Not at the moment, but I'm still using Debian Jessie LXC containers, not Debian Stretch.

In the long term, I think that dropping custom lxc-debops script to generate an LXC container directly, and using a custom bootstrap script applied afterwards, or even debops.bootstrap might be a better solution. This is due to issues with creating unprivileged LXC containers via lxc-download script - this cannot be easily customized for DebOps.
