Bug Description

Trunk (as of 11/24/2014) gives an "Internal server error." when trying to save a managed interface.

This was performed on a fresh MAAS installation (from packages).

Here is the relevant output from /var/log/maas/*.log:

Hi Newell,

Can you please verify this happens in the latest 1.7.1 which is in experimental?

Also, please provide an step by step and a sample configuration of the NIC's of your system to see if we can reproduce it.

There is a hint in the bug report. The error message is:

  CannotConfigureDHCP: DHCPv4 server failed to restart: stop: Unknown instance:
  start: Job failed to start

The first error occurs when you attempt to stop a service which is already stopped:

  kiko@gasolinux:~/Dropbox/Download$ sudo initctl status dmesg
  dmesg stop/waiting
  kiko@gasolinux:~/Dropbox/Download$ sudo stop dmesg
  stop: Unknown instance:

What appears to have happened is that there was an error starting the DHCP server, which can happen when there is an error in the config file; here's what happens when you have a broken file:

  kiko@chorus:~$ sudo start isc-dhcp-server
  start: Job failed to start

The syslog output is invaluable in that situation:

kiko@chorus:~$ sudo tail /var/log/syslog
Feb 12 15:37:51 chorus dhcpd: key "rndc-key";
Feb 12 15:37:51 chorus dhcpd: ^

Feb 12 15:37:51 chorus dhcpd: ^
Feb 12 15:37:51 chorus dhcpd: /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf line 42: unknown key rndc-key

Feb 12 15:37:51 chorus kernel: [376499.698220] init: isc-dhcp-server pre-start process (1011) terminated with status 1

I'm afraid without syslog output we can't easily help this one.

We had a user report a similar error on IRC, with the following error: http://pastebin.com/8FEcA2ta

That one is different:

Feb 10 12:07:16 vmslab-maas maas.dhcp: [ERROR] Could not rewrite DHCPv4 server configuration (for network interfaces eth1): Command `sudo -n maas-provision atomic-write --filename /etc/maas/dhcpd.conf --mode 0644` returned non-zero exit status 1:#012None

Now why would atomic_write() fail?

I'm a bit confused as to what ActionScript.__call__() is doing when an error is reported -- is error.output actually emitted anywhere?

@Newell:

Can you please have a look in upstart's log: /var/log/upstart/maas-dhcpd.log ?
Also, please attach the result of `ifconfig` and the content of /etc/maas/dhcpd.conf to this bug so that we can see if the generated DHCP config is wrong.

No this was not running within an LXC machine. This was on my host
machine. I have not been able to reproduce this with the current code. I
will need to try and re-install that specific branch and see if I can
reproduce it.
