This was working in Otter 3. For me, this is a regression

I am using map expression because I have to pass a group of variable which are interdependant
So I am sure the others sysadmin and dev people will use the right set of parameters.

Example
I have a script for creating VM and I need to pass 3 variables (Modele, OS and Template)

%(Modele: Ubuntu 20.04,            OS:Linux,   Template:GI-DCS-UBUNTU-20.04.1-20210121)
%(Modele: W2019 GUI FR 2010,       OS:Windows, Template:GI-DCS-W2019-FR-GUI-20201026)
%(Modele: W2019 CORE FR 2010,      OS:Windows, Template:GI-DCS-W2019-FR-CORE-20201026)
%(Modele: W2019 GUI FR 2006,       OS:Windows, Template:GI-DCS-W2019-FR-GUI-20200624)
%(Modele: W2022 CORE FR 2202,      OS:Windows, Template:GI-W2022-FR-CORE-21H2)
%(Modele: W2022 GUI FR 2202 21H2,  OS:Windows, Template:GI-W2022-FR-GUI-21H2)

I made a test with the apostrophe escape symbol and I have this error

Beginning execution run...
**Indexer is only valid on list or map values.**
Execution run succeeded.
Cleaning up temporary files on Linux/SSH (10.100.4.70:2666)...

Hello

It could be nice to have the environnement from the Assigned Servers list:

could be this:

Hello

List variable seems to be buggy

Create a test otter script : test-hello.otter

Log-Debug Hello $ServerName;

Create a job template :

• script : test-hello.otter
• template variables:
  

Create the job with default value ==> Job failed

Create the job and select item2 value ==> Job failed

Create the job and select the last item value ==> Job completed

Whatever the number of items in the list, only the last item is working

Cordially

I created 4 servers (linux) and register to otter.
Start Server checker.
After few minutes, otter reports the server need to be remediated.

It is looking good if I start server checker on" rather the runnig "check configuraiton" from the server itself

Thanks for the tips

@atripp
I will make a test with few servers and check how long it takes .

@atripp said in OTTER / Long time for Linux server for first configuraiton collection:

How soon after you add the server do you run a configuration run?

YES

When you say "reset otter", do you mean the Otter Service?

I restart the docker stack -

Are you able to cancel those executions? Like, if you navigate to them?

No action (link) is available to stop them

Does running the Server Checker task (on the Service Page, same page that shows Execution Dispatcher) cause them to kick off? What output do you see when you run that task, if not?

Sometimes, when I restart the server checker, the configuration run thru

I have to make more consistent tests, but the problem occurs when I register several servers in the same time.

@atripp said in BM - Help needed for Git checkout:

shexec echo hello world;

I have no issue to run a shexec. This is just the git-checkout.
The server is also configured thru Otter without any problems ...

I am using artifact captured from localhost so it is OK for me

I will make other tests later

from sshd log, the bm server make a connection, create the tmp folder and nothing else happen since I cancel the job

I ran on localhost (ia the buildmaster server) and the chekout is working fine.

Same script on target server => not working

I will capture and make an artifact to overcome the problem

Do you thin this is a bug or is it something I misused ?

Best regards

@atripp said in BM - Help needed for Git checkout:

There's a lot of logs missing, so we can't really see where it's failing. Does it work if you're checking out to a Windows server (maybe localhost?)

In fact, it never ends. - more than one hour running

And I made a test on localhost build it is a docker setup
so I have the same result

I will make some tests

Hi,

I have some problem to make git-checkout running properly

I created one application linked to gitlab repository.
This part is working fine

I created a pipelinestage and I ran this script :

set $DestFolder = /opt/${ApplicationName};
Ensure-Directory $DestFolder;
{
    Git::Checkout-Code
    (
        To: $DestFolder,
    );
}

As I understand, the Git::Checkout-code will grab the code from $Repository, but it can't reach the gitlab server

.

I have done a second application, where I am using Git::Checkout-Code but I had all the expected variables manually and it is working fine.
I thought if the application is linked to the git repo, it is transparent and I don't need to add the infor i n the checkout function.

Something is missing but I don't know what exactly, any advice, example is welcome

Thanks
Philippe

Hello

When I register new linux server, first routine configuration does not work smoothly.
It is stucked with this msg :

DEBUG: 2023-08-29 07:16:37Z - Building OtterScript configuration for server "VM004070" to target 2 roles...

I need to reset otter to run through and start the remediation

Any thoughts ?

The roles are very simple (just an ensure-directory and one ensure-file)

@apxltd
I'll wait for v2024

Hello Inedo Team

It could be nice to display all the pipelines defined for one application, instead having only the last updated.
But I don't know if it is a good wish :)

I know, this mean I have multiple release for the same application, but I don't want to make one application for each pipeline.
As we can have multiple pipelines for one application, why not ? - not doing it for developpement complexity would be a good excuse -

Illustration :

I have 3 pipelines defined for one application

• install-keepalived
• install-haproxy
• config-haproxy

Actually, if I run the 3 pipelines, I have this

I could nice to have this
text colors are the one set for the pipeline and should be as background color for the line)

Best regards
Philippe

Hi @atripp

Oups,
After your reply, I checked the ssh config on the target server and I forgot I allowed ssh root connection only from the Otter / BM server.

Match Address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 
PermitRootLogin prohibit-password

Changing the address solved the error

My bad

Thank you for your time

@atripp
I can see the secured variables pages (I guess they are encrypted)
