I'm trying to write a Puppet module to install Vagrant and a couple associated plugins. However, when I provision the machines with Puppet, Vagrant installs correctly but the vagrant-aws plugin installation fails. I use an exec resource with the command vagrant plugin install vagrant-aws which executes fine when run from the command line on the machine, but when run through Puppet it fails with errors. What could be the reason for this?

I am trying to get Vagrant up and running in an Ubuntu AWS EC2 instance. I have Vagrant installed, i have a dummy vagrant box installed, I have vagrant libvirt plugin installed as well as libvirt daemons. I did a kvm check and I cant have it the CPU does not support kvm extensions. Where I'm falling down is trying to install the vagrant aws plugin. originally it failed because the json file was the wrong version I've fixed that but now the error I'm getting is as follows.
Vagrant failed to install the requested plugin because it depends
on a library which is not currently installed on this system. The
following library is required by the 'vagrant-aws' plugin:
libvirt
Please install the library and then run the command again.
If there's any more information you need please let me know, this is bugging me now!
thank you
installing vagrant, libvirt
I am trying to install the lustre clients on Unbuntu 20.04 nodes I have in GCP. Im using linux kernel version 5.15.0-1021-gcp.
I'm trying to install the client with the following code:
cd /home/apps/
mkdir lustre
git clone git://git.whamcloud.com/fs/lustre-release.git
cd lustre-release
git checkout 2.15.0
sh autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/home/apps/lustre --disable-server --enable-client ## doesnt run! Fails at ./configures with error message "error: Run make config in /lib/modules/5.15.0-1021-gcp/build"
make debs
The configure step fails with an error about running make config in /lib/modules/5.15.0-1021-gcp/build. I tried running make config in /lib/modules/5.15.0-1021-gcp/build but was asked to input some values that I was unsure of.
I also tried downloading the deb package of the client software at
https://downloads.whamcloud.com/public/lustre/lustre-2.15.0/ubuntu2004/client/lustre-client-modules-5.4.0-96-generic_2.15.0-1_amd64.deb. However this is for the wrong linux kernel and I'm not sure what env variables need to be set for this package.
Anyone know how to install the client modules for lustre on Ubuntu?
You need to have the kernel sources or kernel-devel package that exactly match the kernel that you are installing on. This should also include the .config file that describes all of the options used when building your kernel.
Alternately, you could try a pre-built package, but it isn't clear if this will install on your kernel or not.

Background:
I created a sandbox VM with VirtualBox on my macOS. It correctly spins up a VM (with CentOS7 running on it) on which I can access to.
Inside this sandbox vm, I want to spin up several vms in order to test Ansible Playbooks with Kitchen CI & Vagrant, thus I installed VirtualBox by downloading it from the following link: https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.2.8/VirtualBox-5.2-5.2.8_121009_el7-1.x86_64.rpm
After the installation I executed the command:
[david#vmkitchen-env ansible-test]# VBoxManage --version
It returned:
WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.10.0-693.2.1.el7.x86_64) or it
failed to load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it
by
sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
5.2.8r121009
I installed the Development tools, but I keep getting the same issue.
I don't think I need to recompile any kernel module. Any idea?
Thanks in advance for your help.
So, after searching on the internet, and not just on the VirtualBox website, I found the solution, and I was right: I did not need to compile any module.
The following is the reference to the CentOS wiki page:
https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Virtualization/VirtualBox
In a few words, I had to install dkms and kernel-devel packages. In order to do so, I needed to install EPEL repository; but personally I prefer to install and enable the IUS repository.
The following are the set of commands that worked for me:
yum groupinstall "Development tools"
yum install https://centos7.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm
yum install dkms
yum install kernel-devel
reboot
After the machine had rebooted, I was able to get VirtualBox working fine.
I verified by the command line:
[david#vmkitchen-env ansible-test]# VBoxManage --version
And it returned the correct value:
5.2.8r121009
Below steps fixed the issue for me.
1.sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
vboxdrv.sh: Stopping VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Starting VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Building VirtualBox kernel modules.
This system is currently not set up to build kernel modules.
Please install the Linux kernel "header" files matching the current kernel
for adding new hardware support to the system.
The distribution packages containing the headers are probably:
kernel-devel kernel-devel-3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.x86_64
2.This website has the kernel module - website
wget https://linuxsoft.cern.ch/cern/centos/7/updates/x86_64/Packages/kernel-devel-3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.x86_64.rpm
4.yum localinstall kernel-devel-3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.x86_64.rpm -y
5.sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
Issue resolved
On Fedora 36, I only had to run
sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
I'm not sure if this is Docker, the Elastick Beanstalk, or docker image issue related, but my problem is that I'm running the command eb local run to start the local environment alongside with docker.
Expected behavior
The command runs seamlessly
Actual behavior
ERROR: DockerVersionError - Your local host has the 'docker-py' version 1.10.6 Python package installed on it.
When you run a Multicontainer Docker application locally, the EB CLI requires the 'docker' Python package.
To fix this error:
Be sure that no applications on your local host require 'docker-py', and then run this command:
pip uninstall docker-py
The EB CLI will install 'docker' the next time you run it.
$ eb --version : EB CLI 3.12.2 (Python 2.7.1)
$ docker -v : Docker version 17.12.0-ce, build c97c6d6
If you want to launch multi-container Dockers using eb local run, you need to have uninstalled docker-py, and installed docker
As the error message indicates:
perform pip uninstall docker-py ** if you don't need it **.
run pip install "docker>=2.6.0,<2.7" immediately after
docker and docker-py cannot coexist. These release notes highlight the change in the package name. These release notes allude to the breakage the change in package name caused.
Not to be confused with Docker, the engine/client, docker-py/docker is a Python wrapper around the Docker client which the EBCLI relies on.
As a starting point to making my own app that uses meanjs, I went to the meanjs website and used their yeomen generator to create the template/sample app. Following the instructions getting the sample application running out of the box on my local desktop machine worked within minutes. To complete the exercise I tried to deploy the sample app to an AWS/EC2 instance before making any changes to it. I have used the command line deployment tools in the past and liked it. Also it is nice how now you can just select an EC2 Linux instance with node and npm already installed and ready.
After checking the sample into git, I run "git aws.push" to deploy the app.
The problem is in the package.json the line:
"postinstall": "bower install --config.interactive=false"
In the eb-activity.log:
npm WARN cannot run in wd meansample#0.0.1 bower install --config.interactive=false (wd=/tmp/deployment/application)
The result is that AngularJS ends up not getting installed in /public/lib.
First thing I tried was giving the full path in the package.json file: node_modules/bower/bin/bower. This didn't help and results in the same error. Also noting that other commands like "grunt" don't need the full path specified in the package.json and they work.
I don't understand enough of the black box magic that aws.push does to understand why this error is happening. For example what user does it run as? What permissions does that user have? what options if any does it use when it runs npm install?
I did figure out a work-around, but it adds a lot of extra steps that shouldn't be required if aws.push was able to run bower install directly. Basically I can manually run the bower install in the ssh client connected to my EC2 instance, set the owner/group on the installed files, and restart the server.
Work-around steps:
1) On local command prompt run git aws.push. Wait for unsuccessfully deployment to finish.
2) Connect ssh client to EC2 instance. From the command prompt:
cd /var/app/current
/* NOTE: if I don't use sudo the ec2user I am logged in as does not have permission to create /public/lib needed to install AngularJS into*/
sudo node_modules/bower/bin/bower install --config.interactive=false --allow-root
/* NOTE: just changing the owner and group to match the same as the other files that aws.push deployed */
sudo chown -R nodejs public/lib
sudo chgrp -R nodejs public/lib
From AWS dashboard, select the correct EC2 instance, Action = Restart App Server(s)
Now AngularJS is install and the sample app works.
How do I eliminate the extra steps and make it so aws.push can do the bower install successfully?
I have experienced the same problem when trying to publish my nodejs app in a private server running CentOs using root user. The same error is fired by "postinstall": "./node_modules/bower/bin/bower install" in my package.json file so the only solution that was working for me is to use both options to avoid the error:
1: use --allow-root option for bower install command
"postinstall": "./node_modules/bower/bin/bower --allow-root install"
2: use --unsafe-perm option for npm install command
npm install --unsafe-perm
