Xen Orchestra - Community Edition - Installing with Yarn

BRRABill

BTW, I have never done that, and do not have issues updating.

Or at least, issues that I know of.

Also seems like from more research it is tied to commit transactions.

Why would that be coming up in this instance?

Danp

@BRRABill The git pull command started failling with the following --

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:
<list of files here>
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.

So I implemented git stash -u to eliminate the unmerged changes. There may be a better way to accomplish this.

@Danp thanks it solved the issue, it broke my self signed ssl cert though

And I am not sure what caused sudden increase in interest on this topic, my email was blowing up this morning

Danp

@shwetkprabhat Please tell us more about your setup. Where was the certificate installed? Also, what other files did you modify within the xo-server / xo-web directories?

geek-baba

@Danp I used your guide to enable https and only changed one file mentioned in the guide

Danp

@shwetkprabhat Ok. The git stash command wipes out any modifications so that the git pull will successfully execute. Will need to investigate if using git stash pop will successfully merge the changes back into the updated source.

@shwetkprabhat Been looking into this further with @DustinB3403. I'm still not clear how you lost your SSL access. In our testing, changes to the .yaml config file are being retained.

Can you clarify what changes were lost or what files were removed?

Yeah I'm not seeing the same issue. I setup a new installation, and added a comment to the yaml file. Updated and the changes were retained.

DustinB3403

We need a few people willing to test this.

DustinB3403

Specifically this updater here.

@Danp I lost the config file itself /opt/xo-server/config.yaml, it was blank and I had to recreate. Now before I updated after defining the GIT local user, I tried next-version and stable commands, so that may have caused the issue.

DustinB3403

Our installer copies the file to .xo-server.yaml

. . . were you looking for the wrong file?

geek-baba

@DustinB3403 I am not sure, after the update the https stopped working, so I went back to the tutorial I followed to set it up https://xen-orchestra.com/forum/topic/440/problems-setting-up-https-on-xo and I used the same path and recreated it and it started to work again.

DustinB3403

@shwetkprabhat If you're using the community edition you should probably be using the installer and updater that we've built and provide here.

The XO forums are great, and for help outside of bug reporting should come here (more or less)

geek-baba

@DustinB3403 thats right, I used your installer and updater for community edition. The only thing outside I did was to setup self signed certs for access.

Hrm. . .

Curious then. I can't get it to reproduce the issue you reported.

Danp

@shwetkprabhat Do you know what directory contains the certificates?

SickNick

Is anyone here using the NFS function for off-site backup?

Its an option to remove if you don't need it.
