ERROR failed to bootstrap environment: subprocess encountered error code 255

[nitinrpatil]

I have installed Ubuntu Server 15.10 with MAAS on a machine and have configured two nodes with the MAAS Server. The nodes are commissioned and have their state as Ready. When I am running the command "juju bootstrap", I am getting the error "ERROR failed to bootstrap environment: subprocess encountered error code 255" after a long time (around 30 minutes or more).

The complete log of the command output is as follows:

Please suggest any solution. Thanks in advance!

@nitinrpatil sorry you're having issues, can you try running with juju bootstrap --debug to see if that throws up anything more?

As this is a specific issues I'd recommend emailing the juju mailing list juju@lists.ubuntu.com. We should be able to find someone to resolve your issue fairly quickly

@mattyw thanks for the reply!

Actually, the problem has been solved. My nodes were not able to connect to the internet. So, I added my default gateway in the "Upstream DNS" option of the Settings section of MAAS Web UI. After that, the nodes were able to download packages from internet and juju bootstrapped successfully.
