Hi,

I've installed Opsi 4.0 on Ubuntu 10.04.2, following the steps in the Opsi pdf manual.
Opsi seems to work (i can run the web based configed, i can boot machines using various bootimages), however i get an error, when i want to install Windows XP with Netboot:

I see the 'charmap' error on the computer where i want to install WinXP. The only option is to press on 'OK' and the install stops after that.

Also there is another error i get when i use the command opsi-admin -d method backend_info :

[2] Traceback: (Logger.py|742)

[2] ==>>> Failed to execute 'method backend_info': 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 19: ordinal not in range(128) (opsi-admin|1526)

I didn't change anything in the backend config, using the default one.
Both errors seems to be related to python configuration, but i can't figure out, what could be the problem.

Hi,

did you run:
?

regards

d.oertel

Yes, i did run those commands.

Hi,

please set the opsiconfd log level to 8 in /etc/opsi/opsiconfd.conf and run opsi-admin with '--loglevel 8 --log-file opsi-admin.log' and please post the resulting log file plus /var/log/opsi/opsiconfd/opsiconfd.log

If you're uncomfortable with posting verbose logs in public, feel free to mail the to c.kampka@uib.de

Cheers,
Christian Kampka

Netboot is working now. I don't know, how i fixed it, but here are the steps i made:

1. Set log level 8 in /etc/opsi/opsiconfd.conf
2. Run the 4 commands mentioned above:
3. Restart the server
4. Run those 4 commands again

The 'opsi-admin --loglevel8 --log-file opsi-admin.log' command generates a 0 length file only, and gives the exact same error, that i got with 'opsi-admin -d method backend_info' too:

Hi,

please try the testing version from opsiconfd.

Therefor please download and install the package manually from:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositori ... 0-testing/

When you have installed the new package, try to stop the opsiconfd-service
Check if all instances of opsiconfd are stopped, if not kill them. Then start the opsiconfd-Deamon again.
