packer-ubuntu-1404's Issues

Build fails due to order of setup/ansible.sh scripts

Switch back to 14.04.1 to prevent HGFS error on VMware

See: geerlingguy/packer-boxes#5

Box version 1.0.9 fails to load HGFS module with vmware

The newest version on https://vagrantcloud.com/geerlingguy/boxes/ubuntu1404 hangs when trying to load the HGFS module in vagrant, and never completes.

20GB is not that much

Because is a dynamic drive, something bigger, like 80GB would make more sense...

Make sure VirtualBox paravirtprovider is set to KVM (new VB 5.0 default)

It looks like there was a bug in VB 5.0.0 that caused the paravirtualization provider to not be set properly when a box was exported. In the latest VB (5.0.2+) and Packer, it should set KVM explicitly, as it's the new default.

But if not, I'd like to add the configuration to the Packer config explicitly (see this Google Groups thread), because it would be nice to be able to revert geerlingguy/drupal-vm#212 and save a line of VirtualBox config.

Build fails due to Galaxy certificate issue and VirtualBox Guest Additions Installer hangs

See related: geerlingguy/packer-centos-6#15

Basically, Ubuntu 14.04's apt repos ship with a version of Python too old to support SNI. Easiest fix since 14.04 is so old and I don't want to try to replace system Python with something more advanced is to pass the -c option to the ansible-galaxy command like so:

"galaxycommand": "ansible-galaxy -c"

Remove VMware Fusion support

Since I haven't updated that box, nor even have Fusion anymore... I am not willing to maintain support for it in this project.

Use variables for easier multi-provider maintenance

See, as an example: chef/bento@dbc16e9#diff-d14eea22fcac79c40f38dc6533c28999

This should be done here and in the other three Packer projects I maintain.

Resolve 'Waiting for HGFS kernel module to load' error for VMWare

See: Error Waiting for HGFS kernel module to load during vagrant up --provider=vmware_fusion. This seems to be a problem with both this and the 12.04 version of the Packer-built box, and only occurs when using native shared folders (the problem goes away when using NFS).

Switch back to 14.04.4 or latest if HGFS issues ever resolved

It looks like the HGFS issue might be resolved, so I'm going to do some testing. See related: geerlingguy/packer-boxes#5

Make sure all the Ansible packages are removed

For the VMware Fusion box (at least), I get the following when performing apt commands inside the generated box:

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libyaml-0-2 python-crypto python-httplib2 python-jinja2 python-markupsafe
  python-paramiko python-pkg-resources python-support python-yaml sshpass
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

Update to 14.04.5

It is available.

Overly complex boot command

Hi, I used your build as a template for my own purposes.

I ended up reducing the boot command to the following:

      "boot_command": [
        "<esc><wait>",
        "<esc><wait>",
        "<enter><wait>",
        "/install/vmlinuz",
        " auto=true",
        " priority=critical",
        " initrd=/install/initrd.gz",
        " url=http://{{ .HTTPIP }}:{{ .HTTPPort }}/preseed.cfg",
        " -- ",
        "<enter>"
      ],

and putting the following in my preseed.cfg

d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US

d-i console-setup/ask_detect boolean false

d-i keyboard-configuration/modelcode string pc105
d-i keyboard-configuration/layoutcode string us

Results are the same as your current configuration but pushes the decision to the preseed.cfg which is easier to maintain/manage.

Cheers!

PS Thanks for the great template to get me started! I've never used Ubuntu before.

Update to Ubuntu 14.04.3

Do it to it! http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/

The open-vm-tools package prevent installing VMware Tools

I'm opening an issue here but it can be related to ansible-role-packer-debian.

I've updated the ubuntu1404.json to the newest iso

      "iso_urls": [
        "iso/ubuntu-14.04.5-server-amd64.iso",
        "http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04.5-server-amd64.iso"
      ],
      "iso_checksum_type": "sha256",
      "iso_checksum": "dde07d37647a1d2d9247e33f14e91acb10445a97578384896b4e1d985f754cc1",

and try build vmware box.

I receive an error

I tried find in which step the open-vm-tools packages is installed to prevent it but without success.

When I initialized unattended installation of Ubuntu - using boot parameter and preseed.cfg file open-vm-tools were not installed.

I don't understand :-(

Can you look on this too? Thank you.

Add support for VMware Fusion

See: geerlingguy/drupal-vm#36

I'd like to get this box updated as soon as possible; other boxes can wait for now.

Add Travis CI integration

Basically, validate the script to build the box, similar to what bento does: https://travis-ci.org/opscode/bento/builds/24882721

Tips on using Ansible Galaxy requirements file

I have some roles in my private git instance. I've tried multiple ways to define the git repo w/ oAUTH keys for example and have been unsuccessful. How do you authenticate with a private git repo with Ansible galaxy

Support for vmware provider?

Hi Jeff,

We're switching to vmware as a provider for performance reasons. I tried to install your drupal-dev-vm, which currently points to https://atlas.hashicorp.com/geerlingguy/boxes/ubuntu1404, but that only offers the virtualbox provider. I'm not sure what it would take to support another provider, or if this repo is the one that you deploy to the Atlas, but if it's not difficult to support vmware, I'd love you to add it.

Thanks!

Use Ansible requirements.txt

See: geerlingguy/packer-centos-7#2

Unable to use with VMWare Fusion

When I try and vagrant up --provider=vmware_fusion with the following Vagrantfile: https://github.com/NuCivic/ansible-dev-vm/blob/move-to-geerlinguy140/Vagrantfile

I get:

$ vagrant up --provider=vmware_fusion
Bringing machine 'devbox' up with 'vmware_fusion' provider...
==> devbox: Box 'geerlingguy/ubuntu1404' could not be found. Attempting to find and install...
    devbox: Box Provider: vmware_desktop, vmware_fusion, vmware_workstation
    devbox: Box Version: >= 0
==> devbox: Adding box 'geerlingguy/ubuntu1404' (v0) for provider: vmware_desktop, vmware_fusion, vmware_workstation
    devbox: Downloading: https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/vagrant/trusty/current/trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-vagrant-disk1.box
The box you attempted to add doesn't match the provider you specified.

Provider expected: vmware_desktop, vmware_fusion, vmware_workstation
Provider of box: virtualbox

It says the provider of the box is virtualbox, even I I use the URL http://files.midwesternmac.com/boxes/VMware-ubuntu1404-104.box

Any idea what the issue is? Thanks.
