Bug #21617
open
Errors when running foreman-installer
Description
Tested on a fresh AWS EC2 RHEL7.4 instance (the only non-listed command was running "sudo bash" as ec2-user), these commands were run:
[root@ip-172-31-92-150 ec2-user]# history
1 yum-config-manager --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
2 yum -y install https://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-7.noarch.rpm
3 yum -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
4 yum -y install https://yum.theforeman.org/releases/1.15/el7/x86_64/foreman-release.rpm
5 yum -y install foreman-installer
6 foreman-installer
Expected end result, something looking approximately like "foreman, installed", actual result, lots of installed packages, but no runnable foreman.
Replication steps:
1. Create a new EC2 RHEL7.4 instance
2. Log on as ec2-user
3. Run "sudo bash"
4. Repeat the commands from the history (cut&pasted from the commands shown on https://theforeman.org/manuals/1.15/quickstart_guide.html#QuickstartGuide when RHEL7 is chosen)

Which versions of rake are available? None at all or a version that's too old?

Is there something with your base repo? Perhaps some kind of caching issue?

I can't really speak to caching issues, but I would expect a fresh-built EC2 instance to have access to pretty up-to-date repository mirrors.

For safety's sake, I'll do a 'yum -y update', then re-run foreman-installer, and see if that makes a difference. I'd also be happy to throw this instance away, create a new one and start with an update before going through the foreman install process.

That make no obvious difference to the end result, I am still seeing a missing rubygem(rake) dependency.

can you post the output of "yum repolist" please?

Aha! It's called rhui-REGION-rhel-server-optional in AWS, it looks like.

Then it's IMHO a bug that yum-config-manager doesn't throw an error about a non-existing repo.

Added the optional repo, rubygem-rake is now installed, installation still fails, but now it MAY be too little memory (I started with a t2.micro, will scratch that and try with a larger instance).
I think it would be good to add a "note, the optional RPMs repo is called ... in AWS" to the quickstart guide.
