In order to patch RedHat 7 machines to version 7.9, I've created an RPM repository with RPMs extracted from a DVD.iso file of the patch (example source guide), and updated said machines using yum.
The patch has succeeded with many of the machines (RHEL 7.7 only), but the rest (7.0, 7.2 and some 7.7 as well) have failed the with the following error:
Error: requested datatype filelists not available
I've also tried to gradualize the process and patch the 7.0 and 7.2 ones to 7.7 first by the same process, but yielded the same result. I've made sure I got each and every file in the Packages folder.
It is rather puzzling for me that some succeed and some fail, especially those with the same version. But I'm assuming they were created differently as I don't have the information to say otherwise. So my best direction would be to go by the error.
In this github post, lr1980 says:
https://blog.packagecloud.io/eng/2015/07/20/yum-repository-internals/
this means the "filelists.xml.gz" is missing on repo => it's a packager.io problem
Indeed, browsing my repository's repodata folder reveals only other.xml.gz and primary.xml.gz files, which are also the only files pointed to in the repomd.xml.
I've tried uploading the filelists.xml.gz file from the dvd.iso and reindexing, but it gets removed (admittedly am not familiar with this area of knowledge.. at all). What does "it's a packager.io problem" mean?
How can I force the repo to have such a file, assuming that's what I need? Or what can I do to solve this issue otherwise?
Many thanks
Getting the following error when using drone cli to add/activate repo
No help topic for 'add'
I can confirm I am successfully login and I am an admin.
{"id":1,"login":"XXXXX","email":"","machine":false,"admin":true,"active":true,"avatar":"https://bitbucket.org/account/XXXX/avatar/32/","syncing":false,"synced":1578888217,"created":1578431775,"updated":1578891320,"last_login":1578891344}
I can also list my repo using 'drone repo ls'
My guess, if you are using the add option is that you are still interacting with drone 0.8 or below, in this case the docs have been archived to an alternate location in favor of the latest version (v1.x). The old docs are still available under the following URL and help for the add option is present there:
https://0-8-0.docs.drone.io/cli-repository-add/
If you are not using 0.8 and are indeed trying to use 1.x, perhaps you are referencing improper documentation, as this cli option shifted in v1 to enable
$ drone repo enable <repo/name>
Regardless of the versions however, you will want to ensure you both have admin access to the repository (so that drone is able to add the appropriate webhooks) and also refresh or sync your repo listing in if it is something brand new:
$ drone repo sync
username/hello-world
organization/minio
...
NOTE: This might take a bit depending on how many repos you have access to
I want to collect some buggy files.
So, I found data-set that present which file has a bug.
In data set, document said that Tomcat,6.0.389418,org.apache.jasper.compiler.Compiler file has a bug
In order to get bug file, i visit apache svn repository. And I found archive tomcat version 6_0_38 (http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/archive/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_38)
But I cant get file more detail version (6.0.389418) there is only 6_0_38
Can I think of two versions as the same?
Thank you.
Most importantly, you should know that Tomcat 6 has seen its end of life in December 2016, and the latest version that I can find in the archives is 6.0.53.
Based on this alone: Upgrade! First to the latest version in the 6.0 branch, then to a version that actually will continue to get security fixes. I've never seen any problems when upgrading within the same major version - the tomcat developers do a great job keeping their upgrades compatible.
And last, to the letters of your question instead of the spirit: The third digit of Tomcat version numbers is counting up, one by one. There is no 6.0.389418. As Tomcat uses Subversion, and subversion counts up the commits one by one, you might be lucky to find something around commit #389418 or #9418. Note: I've not even looked at their SVN to check if these are legitimate commits in the time that you're referring to (not even what the current commit is).
Eh, it might be quite hard to really nail this build number, but there is also a good chance this is a build you are asking for. Read for explanation.
You are asking for version: 6.0.389418
If you look into this file:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/archive/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_38/dist.xml
You can learn how build number is being built:
<property name="version.number" value="${version.major}.${version.minor}.${version.build}.${version.patch}"/>
values are taken from:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/archive/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_38/build.properties.default
# ----- Version Control Flags -----
version.major=6
version.minor=0
version.build=38
version.patch=0
version.suffix=
So the missing part of your version is 9418 which is should correspond to ${version.build} or (more unlikely) to ${version.patch}
In either case it might be not unambiguous, because often there is a build script used which performs multiple actions and as a result, appends its own version at the end of real package. I'd lean towards this explanation, because if this were to be a patch number, there would be some /patches directory in SVN, which I don't see in any other directories for more recent development.
But then, there is:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/archive/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_38/bin/version.sh -> running function from:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/archive/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_38/bin/catalina.sh
elif [ "$1" = "version" ] ; then
"$_RUNJAVA" \
-classpath "$CATALINA_HOME/lib/catalina.jar" \
org.apache.catalina.util.ServerInfo
else
Try to download it and run ./bin/version.sh
I would like to have different roles for different stages in serverless.
Example for stage 'dev' I have roleA-dev and for stage 'prod' the role is roleA-prod
What is best way to handle this kind of situation in serverless?
The obvious solution is to update customRole within s-function.json to include the ${stage} variable.
"customRole": "RoleA-${stage}"
Unfortunately, this functionality is currently incomplete in the released version of Serverless, but is expected to be available in v0.5. A GitHub issue has been opened that includes this specific functionality.
20160304 Update:
Serverless v0.5 has now been released for beta testing. You can install it using the following command:
npm install git://github.com/serverless/serverless#v0.5 -g
I'm having a hell of a time deploying matplotlib on AWS Elastic Beanstalk. I gather that my issue comes from some dependencies and the way that EB deploys packages installed with PIP, and have attempted to follow the instructions here on SO for resolving the issue.
I first tried incrementally deploying, as suggested in the linked answer, by adding pieces of the matplotlib package stack to my requirements.txt file in stages. But this takes forever (for each stage) and is prone to failure and timing out (which seems to leave build directories behind that stall subsequent package installations).
So the simple solution mentioned off-handedly at the end of the answer appeals to me: just eb ssh, activate the virtialenv with
source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate
and pip install packages manually. But I can't get this to work either. First I'm often confronted with left-beind build directories (as mentioned above)
pip can't proceed with requirement 'xxxx' due to a pre-existing build directory.
location: /opt/python/run/venv/build/xxxx
This is likely due to a previous installation that failed.
pip is being responsible and not assuming it can delete this.
Please delete it and try again.
But even after removing these, I consistently get
Exception:

What can I do to get this working on AWS-EB? In particular, what do I need to do to get the simple SSH+PIP approach working; or is there some other better — simpler! — approach I should try.
FWIW, I have a .ebextensions/software.config with
packages:
yum:
gcc-c++: []
gcc-gfortran: []
python-devel: []
atlas-sse3-devel: []
lapack-devel: []
libpng-devel: []
freetype-devel: []
zlib-devel: []
and a requirements.txt that ends with
pytz==2014.10
pyparsing==2.0.3
python-dateutil==2.4.0
nose==1.3.4
six>=1.8.0
mock==1.0.1
numpy==1.9.1
matplotlib==1.4.2
After about 4 hours, I've gotten far as numpy (as reported by pip list in the EB virtualenv).
And (in case it matters) the user who is SSHing is part in a group with the policy

I have used many approaches to build and deploy numpy/scipy/matplotlib, on Windows as well as Linux systems. I have used system-provided package managers (aptitude, rpm), 3rd-party package managers (pypm), Python package managers (easy_install, pip), source releases, used different build environments/tools (GCC, but also Intel MKL, OpenMP). While doing so, I have run into many many quite annoying situations, but have also learned a lot about the pros and cons of each approach.
I have no experience with Elastic Beanstalk (EB), but I have experience with EC2. I see that you can SSH into an instance and poke around. So, what I suggest further below is based on
above-stated experiences and on
the more or less obvious boundary conditions regarding Beanstalk and on
your application scenario, described in another question here on SO and on
the fact that you just want to get things running, quickly
My suggestion: start off with not building these things yourself. Do not use pip. If possible, try to use the package manager of the Linux distribution in place and let it handle the installation of everything required for you, with a single command (e.g. sudo apt-get install python-matplotlib).
Disadvantages:
possibly old package versions, depending on the Linux distro in use
non-optimized builds (e.g. not built against e.g. Intel MKL or not leveraging OpenMP features or not using special instruction sets)
Advantages:
it quickly downloads, because packages are most likely cached near your machine
it quickly installs (these packages are pre-built, no compilation involved)
it just works
So, I hope you can just use aptitude or rpm or whatever on these machines and inherit the great work that the distribution package maintainers do for you, behind the scenes.
Once you are confident in your application and identified some bottleneck or issue, you might have reason to use a newer version of numpy/matplotlib/... or you might have reason to have a faster version of these, by creating an optimized build.
Edit: EB-related details of outlined approach
In the meantime we have learned that EB by default runs Amazon Linux which is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Likewise, it uses yum as package manager and packages are in RPM format.
Amazon provides documentation about available packages. In Amazon Linux 2014.09, these packages are available: http://aws.amazon.com/de/amazon-linux-ami/2014.09-packages/
In this list we find
numpy-1.7.2
python-matplotlib-0.99.1.2
This version of matplotlib is very old, according to the changelog it is from September 2009: "2009-09-21 Tagged for release 0.99.1".
I did not anticipate it to be so old, but still, it might be sufficient for your needs. So we proceed with our plan (but I'd understand if that's a blocker).
Now, we have learned that system Python and EB Python are isolated from each other. That does not mean that EB Python cannot access system Python site packages. We just need it to tell so. A simple and clean method is to set up a proper directory structure with the packages that should be accessible to EB Python, and to communicate this directory to EB Python via sys.path.
Clearly, we need to customize the bootstrapping phase of EB containers. The available tools are documented here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/customize-containers-ec2.html
Obviously, we want to make use of the packages approach, and tell EB to install the numpy and python-matplotlib packages via yum. So the corresponding config file section should contain:
packages:
yum:
numpy: []
python-matplotlib: []
Explicitly mentioning numpy might not be necessary, it likely is a dependency of python-matplotlib.
Also, we need to make use of the commands section:
You can use the commands key to execute commands on the EC2 instance.
The commands are processed in alphabetical order by name, and they run
before the application and web server are set up and the application
version file is extracted.
The following three commands create above-mentioned directory, and set up symbolic links to the numpy/mpl installation paths (these paths hopefully are available in the moment these commands become executed):
commands:
00-create-dir:
command: "mkdir -p /opt/py26-selected-site-packages"
01-link-numpy:
command: "ln -s /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/numpy /opt/py26-selected-site-packages/numpy"
02-link-mpl:
command: "ln -s /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib /opt/py26-selected-site-packages/matplotlib"
Two uncertainties: the AWS docs to not clarify that packages are processed before commands are executed. You have to try. It it does not work, use container_commands. Secondly, it is just an educated guess that /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib is available after installing python-matplotlib. It should be installed to this place, but it may end up somewhere else. Needs to be tested. Numpy should end up where specified as inferred from this article.
[UPDATE FROM SEB]
AWS documentation says "The cfn-init helper script processes these configuration sections in the following order: packages, groups, users, sources, files, commands, and then services."
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-init.html
So, your approach is safe
[/UPDATE]
The crucial step, as pointed out in the comments to this answer, is to tell your Python app where to look for packages. Direct modification of sys.path before attempting to import is a reliable method to take control of this. The following code adds our special directory to the selection of directories in which Python looks out for packages, and then attempts to import matplotlib:
sys.path.append("/opt/py26-selected-site-packages")
from matplotlib import pyplot
The order in sys.path defines priorities, so in case there is any other matplotlib or numpy package available in one of the other directories, it might be a better idea to
sys.path.insert(0, "/opt/py26-selected-site-packages")
However, this should not be necessary if our whole approach was well thought-through.
To add to Jan-Philip Answer :
AWS Elastic Beanstalk is using Amazon Linux distribution (except for .Net environments). Amazon Linux uses the yum package manager. MatPlotLib is available in Amazon's software repository.
[ec2-user#ip-1-1-1-174 ~]$ yum list | grep matplot
python-matplotlib.x86_64 0.99.1.2-1.6.amzn1 amzn-main
If this version is the one you need for your application, I would try to simply modify your .ebextensions/software.config file and to add the package to the yum section of it:
packages:
yum:
python-matplotlib: []
python-devel: []
atlas-sse3-devel: []
lapack-devel: []
libpng-devel: []
freetype-devel: []
zlib-devel: []
A last note about AWS Elastic BeansTalk and SSH.
While Amazon gives you the possibility to SSH to your Elastic Beanstalk instances, you should use this possibility only for debugging purposes, to understand why your app failed or is not installing as suggested.
Other than that, your deployment must be 100% automatic. When Elastic Beanstalk (Auto Scaling to be precise) will scale out your infrastructure (add more instances) or scale it in (terminate instances) depending on your application workload, all your manual configuration will be lost.
Best practices is to not install SSH keys on your production environment, it further reduces the surface of attacks.
I might be a bit late to this question, but as AWS and a lot of the cloud service providers are moving into Docker and taking into consideration that you haven't specified the platform . I have a fast solution to your question:
Use the generic docker platform.
I created some images with Python, Numpy, Scipy and Matplotlib preinstalled, so you can directly pull and start using them with one line of code.
Python 2.7(This one also has the versions that you were specifying for numpy and matplotlib)
sudo docker pull chuseuiti/pynuscimat2.7
Python 3.4
sudo docker pull chuseuiti/pynusci
However you can create your own image or modify existing images.
In case you want to automate your instances, you can pass a Dockerfile to AWS with the definition of your image.
Tip, in case you don't know about docker:
It is need to login before been able to pull:
sudo docker login
After pulling the image, you can generate and work in a container created from an image with the next code:
sudo docker run -i -t chuseuiti/pynuscimat2.7 bash
PS. At least with the free tier AWS is always complaining about running out of time with scipy and matplotlib, it takes too much time to install them, that is why I use this option.
