rancherd install script needs to use channel-server at update.rancher.io #29209

cjellick · 2020-09-28T13:38:51Z

It currently, presumably, would just use the "latest" release on github. But Rancher will quickly have a latest release from an older branch, so we need better control over what it uses.

rancher-max · 2020-09-30T05:38:47Z

This is validated for rancherd using the following options:

$ curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/rancher/master//cmd/rancherd/install.sh | sudo INSTALL_RANCHERD_CHANNEL=latest sh -

$ curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/rancher/master//cmd/rancherd/install.sh | sudo INSTALL_RANCHERD_CHANNEL=testing sh -

$ curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/rancher/master//cmd/rancherd/install.sh | sudo INSTALL_RANCHERD_CHANNEL=stable sh -

Stable returns 404 currently as it attempts pull from: [INFO] downloading checksums at https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases/download/stable/sha256sum.txt

Testing pulls from latest rc: [INFO] downloading checksums at https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases/download/v2.5.0-rc3/sha256sum.txt

Latest pulls from latest actual released version: [INFO] downloading checksums at https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases/download/v2.4.8/sha256sum.txt

I don't think stable will ever work? If this is expected behavior though, we can close this.

cjellick · 2020-09-30T14:13:06Z

A couple things:

You should be test this using get.rancher.io rather than the raw url. But that url isn't resolving to the right thing right now. I've opened an issue with EIO to fix that. @davidnuzik please track that ticket and make sure max knows when its done.
@MonzElmasry can you make the default channel in the script "latest" so that the script will work without having to supply a channel at all.
Stable won't work until we introduce a "stable channel. But, we don't need to do that until this graduates from preview.

cjellick · 2020-09-30T14:38:15Z

for now, latest will be funky until 2.5.0 is release. thats why latest resolves to 2.4.8. once 2.5.0 is out, something in the 2.5 release will always be “latest”.

We should make “latest” be the same as “testing” until 2.5.0 is officially released.

I need to have the install script working by default before the official release, without extra parameters, even if that means it installs an RC.

On the day of the 2.5 release, we’ll need to update the latest channel in channels.yaml back to having excludeRegexp: ^[^+]+-

@davidnuzik - make sure @cbron knows this. It won't break on the day of the release and 2.5.0 will automatically become the release it uses, but we still want to update it to make sure it doesnt pick up RCs after the initial release

cjellick · 2020-09-30T20:10:57Z

@rancher-max you should now be able to test against get.rancher.io

rancher-max · 2020-09-30T21:14:25Z

Looked to be defaulted to using channel testing. Not a huge bug since this matches latest at the moment, but #29288 fixes it. Pulling from https://get.rancher.io is working as expected. Will do one last check and close this after the PR is merged.

Didn't you just demonstrate that stable produces 404? So... there's NO working stable branch? Just tested, and yeah... 404...

:/

vincent99 · 2021-07-11T16:22:21Z

@BloodyIron if you have an issue make ONE issue for it with all the info you have and stop spamming random year-old threads about non-issues.

There was no stable at the time this was written because this was testing 2.5.0 RCs and it didn't EXIST in a stable release yet.

nickgerace · 2021-09-02T21:04:36Z

@timj477 I am able to curl the URL. Are you able to as well? Perhaps, it's been resolved, there's an intermittent issue, or it's still broken for you.

We download the script add set -xe at the top as well to see what's going on.

brandond · 2021-09-02T21:41:57Z

RancherD was an experimental feature in Rancher 2.5 that has been dropped as of Rancher 2.6. Its experimental nature is also why there was never a 'stable' channel.

From the 2.6.0 release notes:

Experimental Features

RancherD was introduced in 2.5 as an easy-to-use installation binary. With the introduction of RKE2 provisioning, this project is being re-written and will be available at a later time. See #33423.

timj477 · 2021-09-03T01:30:15Z

Thank you for your response. I am still unable to load rancher.
With the script "curl -sfL https://get.rancher.io | sudo sh -"
Could you direct me to the proper procedures to load rancher.
Thank you for all your help

hreidar · 2021-09-03T07:51:46Z

Thanks, for the info @brandond , I missed this in the release docs. I also miss rancherd :-) Hope it will be back soon.

BloodyIron · 2021-09-03T23:30:34Z

Yeah honestly I tried RancherD, it went so horribly (sorry), and just gave up and went with the Docker method outlined on the front page of Rancher. It's been working like a charm since!
