Description

Since clicking "Test connection" while editing a Compute resource causes Foreman to display the error "Unable to save; undefined method `text' for nil:NilClass", I have tried to find out where this error actually comes from.

In the controller app/controllers/compute_resources_controller#test_connection are basically two calls: one to initialize ComputeResource (in this case Libvirt) and one to actually test the connection. The former works, the latter causes the above error.

At some point in Foreman::Model::Libvirt#test_connection it somehow tries to access #hypervisor, which returns client.nodes.first, but client is a Libvirt::Connect and does not have a method #nodes.

I tried to replay the whole thing in the console:

irb(main):003:0> a = ::Fog::Compute.new :provider => 'Libvirt', :libvirt_uri => 'qemu+tcp://monster.HOSTNAME/system'  
=> #<Fog::Compute::Libvirt::Real:70085136428260 @ip_command=nil @client=#<Libvirt::Connect:0x7f7bef454fa8> @uri=#<Fog::Compute::LibvirtUtil::URI:0x7f7bef457a50 @parsed_uri=#<URI::Generic:0x7f7bef454d78 URL:qemu+tcp://monster.HOSTNAME/system>, @uri="qemu+tcp://monster.HOSTNAME/system">>
irb(main):004:0> a.client
=> #<Libvirt::Connect:0x7f7bef454fa8>
irb(main):005:0> a.client.nodes
NoMethodError: undefined method `nodes' for #<Libvirt::Connect:0x7f7bef454fa8>
        from (irb):5
        from :0

Since I am not sure what exactly is supposed to happen at that point, I'll just paste the stacktrace that I managed to gather here. Originally there was no stacktrace, so I added a seperate call to #client.nodes with a begin/rescue block around it, capturing the exception and printing the backtrace line by line.

So on IRC yesterday, I think we tracked this down to the <system> tag missing from libvirt's sysinfo (see `virsh sysinfo`), which Fog expected to always be there. Did you find out anything from libvirt upstream about whether it's optional or a bug? If it's optional, we should fix this in Fog.

Dominic, thanks for the reminder. I didn't follup up with upstream yesterday, doing that now.

Just as a reminder, this is what `virsh sysinfo` returns:

</sysinfo>

The <system></system> block with uuid, manufacturer, product and serial we usually see is missing here. The question is whether this is expected behaviour.

Hello,

Fog bug is closed. Do you still have the issue with Foreman? Can we close this bug?
