👋 Hello! Thanks for contributing to our project.
Acceptance tests will take some time (aprox. 1h), please be patient ☕
You can see the progress at the end of this page and at https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/pull/8504/checks
Once tests finish, if they fail, you can check 👀 the cucumber report. See the link at the output of the action.
You can also check the artifacts section, which contains the logs at https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/pull/8504/checks.

If you are unsure the failing tests are related to your code, you can check the "reference jobs". These are jobs that run on a scheduled time with code from master. If they fail for the same reason as your build, it means the tests or the infrastructure are broken. If they do not fail, but yours do, it means it is related to your code.

Reference tests:

• https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/actions/workflows/acceptance_tests_secondary_parallel.yml?query=event%3Aschedule

• https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/actions/workflows/acceptance_tests_secondary.yml?query=event%3Aschedule

KNOWN ISSUES

Sometimes the build can fail when pulling new jar files from download.opensuse.org . This is a known limitation. Given this happens rarely, when it does, all you need to do is rerun the test. Sorry for the inconvenience.

For more tips on troubleshooting, see the troubleshooting guide.

Happy hacking!
⚠️ You should not merge if acceptance tests fail to pass. ⚠️

Hi @mayrstefan. Thant you, for your contribution!
Please also add the new Ubuntu 24.04 channels to the TIMEOUT_BY_CHANNEL_NAME array in constants.rb. Regarding the values, you can take a look at the ones from Ubuntu 22.04. They are all estimates.

[nodeg]

From a QE/test suite perspective, the changes LGTM. Thank you for your contribution!

LGTM, there is one typo I assume.

[mayrstefan]

#8503 is related to prepare Uyuni for the next Ubuntu release.

What is needed to get this PR get merged? Is there a chance to get this into 2024.06?

Hi Stefan, let me check this internally. So far I could check that repos seem to mirror correctly. I could not test a bootstrap yet because the venv-salt-minion package is not available yet. I will follow up with this.
I'm not sure about 2024.06 (can't even confirm whether there will be a release next month). General time frame for Ubuntu 24.04 was "Summer". I'll try to get back to you with something more accurate within the week.

[raulillo82]

We're aiming to give support to Ubuntu 2024.04 in Uyuni release 2024.07 (although not guaranteed, could be that it arrives later). Of course, if this is possible before, we will not delay it on purpose, in case the enablement is ready.

[mcalmer]

I have removed "merge-candidate" label as only the testsuite part was reviewed yet.

[admd]

@mayrstefan thank you for the contribution. As some things have changed in 24.04 like this https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24-04-lts-noble-numbat-release-notes/39890#deb822-sources-management , can you please verify if what we you have in this PR suffices.

[admd]

@mayrstefan I don't see any changes in susemanager-sls package so this is not needed.

This is addressed in PR #8503 which should also work for the next Debian release. That's why this is in a separate PR.

[raulillo82]

I was trying to test this PR, so far the reposync seems to have worked.

However, the bootstrap repo was not generated, and bootstrapping obviously fails. When running mgr-create-bootstrap-repo manually, I'm getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/mgr-create-bootstrap-repo", line 17, in <module>
    from uyuni.common import usix, rhnLib, notificationUtils
ImportError: cannot import name 'notificationUtils'

I've built the packages from this PR and pushed them to my OBS repo, see:
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/raulosuna:/branches:/systemsmanagement:/Uyuni:/Master/openSUSE_Leap_15.5/

I reverted the packages to the Uyuni ones, and when doing a diff of the mgr-create-bootstrap-repo script, I saw a lot of lines changing. So my theory is that as this PR was submitted very long ago, and there have been Uyuni versions bumps in the middle, there might be a rebase needed.

Does this make sense for you?
