Description

Hello Foreman Users,

I recently upgraded to Foreman 1.12 but I should note that it was happening before 1.12 upgrade and I upgraded thinking that it would fix the Ubuntu Mirror errors I am getting.

The Preseed Default Template previews correctly in Foreman and it looks like this in the Mirror Settings:

  1. Locale
    d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US
  2. country and keyboard settings are automatic. Keep them ...
  3. ... for wheezy and newer:
    d-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap seen true
  4. ... for squeeze and older:
    d-i console-keymaps-at/keymap seen true
  1. Network configuration
    d-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto
    d-i netcfg/get_hostname string elk.domain.com
    d-i netcfg/get_domain string domain.com
    d-i netcfg/wireless_wep string

d-i hw-detect/load_firmware boolean true

  1. Mirror settings
    d-i mirror/country string manual
    d-i mirror/http/hostname string archive.ubuntu.com:80
    d-i mirror/http/directory string /ubuntu
    d-i mirror/http/proxy string
    d-i mirror/codename string trusty
    d-i mirror/suite string trusty
    d-i mirror/udeb/suite string trusty

I've tried using both USA and Canada for Language/Country and it keeps error'ing out. Works ok with CentOS but Ubuntu for some reason doesn't. I can confirm that http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu is pingable from the Foreman server and I can browse to it. Am I missing something in there? PLEASE HELP!

This is my Installation Media configuration:

  • Tracker changed from Bug to Support
  • Category set to Unattended installations

Also at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/foreman-users/uPjWPgVAF1Y.

My only guess would be to check the other virtual consoles (ctrl+alt+f*) and see if there are any logs or more details available. Also try Ubuntu support channels for help.

Hey Dominic! Thanks for getting back to me as always. Yeah I opened that topic in Google Foreman Groups but no luck yet
