xoce INTERNAL_ERROR while trying to create VM

burbilog

@olivierlambert I ran xe sr-list and xe-vm-list on all hosts, compiled a list of uuids, sorted them and all of them are unique. How to search for duplicate keys then?

burbilog

@olivierlambert installed xo-cli, connected and ran xo-cli --list-objects , then grepped all uuids, stirpped everything else and tried to find dupes -- none. all uuids are unique there.

burbilog

@burbilog ah, no, there are some repeated, i had to sort it first. but there is a lot of uuids that are repeated.

olivierlambert

Let me also ask some XAPI specialists around

burbilog

@olivierlambert Ugh.

I erased xoce (rm -rf /opt/xen-orchestra && apt purge redis-server), then reinstalled both xoce and single server afresh. Then I connected brand new, shiny xoce to brand new, shiny server. Only. I did not connect other servers.

And I've got the same problem. Added NFS SR, tried to install VM, pink square, error:

Perhaps, it's a problem with some latest changes to xoce after all?

olivierlambert

Could you try with XOA? This is more and more intriguing, never heard or had this before.

burbilog

@olivierlambert Installed xoa appliance, connected it to that server and it seems to work, xoa creates new VM just fine. So, it's certainly a problem of xoce.

olivierlambert

But that's an error coming from XAPI

Anyone else having issues on latest master commit?

Harrison

@olivierlambert It appears that this is in fact an issue with XOCE. I was able to reproduce the same error. I am having no issue with the XOA appliance or XCP-ng Center.

Thanks a lot for the extra confirmation @Harrison

Would you mind trying to bisect since commit 2518395c03b166d28d3432f8feb33578d7b0f717? (which should be good).

See https://www.metaltoad.com/blog/beginners-guide-git-bisect-process-elimination for more details, on manually try to find the culprit if you prefer

gskger

@olivierlambert I get the same error on a XO from third party script (same script as OP, commit a1bcd, xo-server 5.93.1, xo-web 5.96.0). Can share the error log and more infos to reproduce the error if that helps.

olivierlambert

What will be helpful is trying to find what we broke on master, since we know commit 2518395c03b166d28d3432f8feb33578d7b0f717 should be good
