adding centos8

[gdha]

ASK [rear-test : ensure chrony requirements packages are installed] ***********
ok: [server] => (item=ca-certificates)
failed: [server] (item=libselinux-python) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "failures": ["No package libselinux-python available."], "item": "libselinux-python", "msg": "Failed to install some of the specified packages", "rc": 1, "results": []}

On CentOS 8 the package to get is python3-libselinux (fixed it)

[gdha]

Next issue is with EPEL:

failed: [server] (item=createrepo) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "item": "createrepo", "msg": "Failed to download packages: Curl error (28): Timeout was reached for http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=8&arch=x86_64&repo=AppStream&infra=stock [Operation too slow. Less than 1000 bytes/sec transferred the last 30 seconds]", "results": []}

We do not really need createrepo, but the EPEL repo seems slow.

[gdha]

Another issue was it could not find 'sshfs' which seems part of CentOS-PowerTools.repo (repo is installed with EPEL 8, but not active by default). Fixed: by enabling the PowerTools on CentOS 8

[gdha]

Next issue:

ncluded: /vagrant/centos7/ansible/common/roles/rear-test/tasks/create_users.yml for server

TASK [rear-test : Generate password] *******************************************
fatal: [server]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "cmd": "python -c 'import crypt; print crypt.crypt(\"vagrant\", \"$1$SomeSalt$\")'", "delta": "0:00:00.004054", "end": "2020-02-06 17:07:49.619113", "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 127, "start": "2020-02-06 17:07:49.615059", "stderr": "/bin/sh: python: command not found", "stderr_lines": ["/bin/sh: python: command not found"], "stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []}

Apparently, on CentOS 8 it should be 'python3'

[gdha]

[vagrant@server ~]$ python -c 'import crypt; print crypt.crypt("vagrant", "$1$SomeSalt$")'
  File "<string>", line 1
    import crypt; print crypt.crypt("vagrant", "$1$SomeSalt$")
                            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Correct syntax for python3 should be:

print(crypt.crypt("vagrant", "$1$SomeSalt$"))

which works for python2 as well.

The following sounds serious, but was probably caused by the previous wrong Centos7 repo:

Removed all bareos related RPMs. Will do a new provisioning to have only CentOS8 packages!

Server was ok now, but with client we have the following error:

Strange on the server I see:

ok: [server] => (item=sshfs)

How did we install this again?? Need to verify.

Another issue with obsolete stuff from me:

Last issue:

[gdha]

And an old issue we have seen before:

ASK [rear-test : import generated keys] ***************************************

Now we have:

[gdha]

One step further:

TASK [rear-test : extract the GPG key (for duplicity/duply)] *******************
ok: [client]

TASK [rear-test : trust the GPG key (for duplicity)] ***************************
fatal: [client]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "cmd": "echo $(gpg --list-keys --fingerprint | grep `cat /root/root.gpgkey` -A 1 | tail -1 | tr -d '[:space:]' | awk 'BEGIN { FS = \"=\" } ; { print $2 }'):6 | gpg --import-ownertrust", "delta": "0:00:00.016449", "end": "2020-04-21 16:52:42.753574", "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 2, "start": "2020-04-21 16:52:42.737125", "stderr": "grep: rsa2048: No such file or directory\ngpg: error in '[stdin]': invalid fingerprint", "stderr_lines": ["grep: rsa2048: No such file or directory", "gpg: error in '[stdin]': invalid fingerprint"], "stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []}

[gdha]

And finally:

TASK [rear-test : install duplicity software (RH family)] **********************
changed: [client] => (item=duplicity)
failed: [client] (item=duply) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "failures": ["No package duply available."], "item": "duply", "msg": "Failed to install some of the specified packages", "rc": 1, "results": []}

Seems that in CentOS 8 there is no duply package anymore.
