Description

Since the introduction of UEFI boot, the proxy is required to be updated in order to use the tftp feature, however, if a user forget to upgrade, the following error message is presented:

Deploy TFTP PXELinux config for hostname task failed with the following error: ERF12-5472 [ProxyAPI::ProxyException]: Unable to set TFTP boot entry for 52:54:00:88:52:e6 ([RestClient::Forbidden]: 403 Forbidden) for proxy http://proxy/tftp
Failed to perform rollback on Deploy TFTP PXEGrub2 config for hostname - ERF12-7299 [ProxyAPI::ProxyException]: Unable to delete TFTP boot entry for 52:54:00:88:52:e6 ([RestClient::InternalServerError]: 500 Internal Server Error) for proxy http://proxy/tftp

It would be nice if we could:

present a more explicit message (as we already check the proxy version for something else) OR
fallback to legacy behavior if you are still using an older proxy

thoughts?

By updating you mean upgrading the instance? We don't have an installer patch merged, upgrade should do it (there is a migration as well).

WORKAROUND: mkdir -p /var/lib/tftproot/{grub,grub2} (this is for redhats, different paths on Debian/Ubuntu systems)

Please also provide the proxy logs, it's unclear from the error what the cause of the failure is.

Dom, do I understand correctly that keeping the release flag set means you expect me to fix this for 1.13? I can prioritize if needed.

Yes, because it was filed as a regression versus the previous release. Please don't set assignee if you're not actually working on it.

Yeah sorry, I was hoping to pick it up from my queue soon, but I forgot I have on-call duty. No chance of pushing this through short term.

Closing as this hasn't been fixed in time for the 1.13.x series, and it's of limited use after that - re-open if you are fixing it.

We have hit that bug, because ur proxies are on EL6, and we moved our foreman master to 1.14.3.

Applying the patch https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/theforeman/smart-proxy/pull/443.patch to our proxies did the trick.

EDIT: Was not enough. We upgraded to 1.13.2 using katello-foreman rebuild for el6.

We're also hitting that bug. Our Foreman has been upgraded to 1.13.4, but some of our proxies are on switches running Cumulus Linux 2.5.3, so we need Debian "wheezy" packages, which only support up to 1.11.

Does anyone make wheezy packages for foreman-proxy anymore? From Julien's comment today I gather that there are EL6 packages somewhere, which makes me hopeful that I don't have to build those packages myself...

We could fix this by upgrading our switches to Cumulus 3.2, which is based on Debian jessie, but that's a bit risky and time-consuming so I'd like to procrastinate that some more.

Looks like I was able to work around the problem by applying Lukas's patch (443.patch) on the switch. Thanks!

(Still, in general it would be nice to maintain backwards compatibility with old proxies where possible.)
