install_rally.sh script fails since commit a6e311c6ca1

[Antonio Ojea]

That patch introduced bindep to install rally, since then the install_rally.sh scrpt is failing in our environments with the following error, it seems that something is failing parsing the required files:

Hello A.Ojea,

Please include the following information:
- OS type
- How do you run install_rally.sh and what parameters do you use?
- Do you use sudo or root user to run it?
- Do you use something to parse output of install_rally.sh ? Please share code snippets in this case.

Please use 0.7.0 release as temporary solution: https://github.com/openstack/rally/blob/0.7.0/install_rally.sh

Thanks,
Anton

Hi,

you can reproduce it with the following vagrantfile

https://gist.github.com/itsuugo/221b3b1e3c17b7d4db10b15841626595

It's tested in ubuntu 14.04, running as root with

bash install_rally.sh -y -s

[Antonio Ojea (aojea)]

The problem is because of this code

https://github.com/openstack/rally/blob/master/install_rally.sh#L254-L258

The variable missing is populated with the output of the command bindep -b, that in this case is the message:

"Neither file bindep.txt nor file other-requirements.txt exist."

Because of this, it fails when it try to install the missing packages with the above string.

Sorry for not being able to help more, but I can't understand the logic of the script and send a patch to fix this bug.

    [install] Fix install_rally.sh

    install_rally.sh fails to find bindep.txt if the script
    is downloaded separately.

    This patch moves logic related to bindep to the place where
    rally repo already cloned.
