Hello Lava team,
We have implemented new scripts to support flashing in our "power on" script.
This script manage the PDU, boot pins configuration of the board and an external ST flasher.
At the beginning of the job, the "power on" script is launched.
Then I got the following error message <line way too long ...> .
This cause the execution script to be interrupted, but the job is not interrupted and can continue without flashing the board.
I do not have any additional logs regarding this error on the LAVA web interface.
Our power on script is composed of several scripts that are "chained", script power on call another script,
that call another one.
Do you have an idea about this error ?
Details concerning our configuration :
* we use LAVA V2 ( version 06/2017 ).
* our jobs are pipelined jobs ( LAVA V2)
* Lava server // dispatcher are installed through dockers.

LAVA, until now, has packaged SysVinit files to manage the various daemons
but there have been longstanding problems with log rotation and the need to
carry redundant code to manage the daemonize process for python scripts.
This has allowed instances to support both SysVinit and systemd because
systemd automatically converts the SysVinit files to systemd service files.
Now that V1 has been removed, it has become possible and advantageous to
drop SysVinit support and move to only systemd support. This is expected to
mean that lava-dispatcher (and therefore lava-server) will depend on
systemd-sysv, i.e. systemd needs to be the init system to be able to start
the daemons upon which LAVA relies.
A default install of Debian Jessie and Stretch already defaults to using
systemd as the init system, so this does not necessarily involve any
changes.
If there are questions or issues with this, please reply to the lava-users
mailing list.

Hi all,
We are planning implementing a test that uses QDL (https://git.linaro.org/landing-teams/working/qualcomm/qdl.git/) for DragonBoard flashing.
Scenario:
after we flashed the binaries with QDL we want to check in the serial log if the boot sequence is correct.
Can we develop this test in LAVA?
If not, please recommend a test framework that can.
Thank you,
Alfred

2017.11 is the second release on the roadmap to the removal of V1. This is
the single largest change ever made to the LAVA packages.
* All dashboard URLs are permanently disabled in lava-server.
* All devices which were not enabled for V2 are now hidden and unusable.
* All V1 code has been removed from lava-dispatcher.
* All V1 documentation has been removed from lava-server-doc.
2017.11 disables all access to any V1 test data - including V1 only
devices. The data itself remains in the database but is not accessible via
any API.
If you have chosen to keep an archive of V1 test data and have not yet done
so, you should do this before installing this upgrade. At the very least,
you **must** have a backup of your postgresql database **before** you
upgraded to 2017.11 in order to make a V1 test data archive later.
2017.11 requires that **all** workers and each associated master are
upgraded to 2017.11 for test jobs to continue running. This is because
there have been very large changes to the directories and file layout
within both lava-server and lava-dispatcher associated with the removal of
the V1 components.
The LAVA software team have been checking ahead for the final stage of the
roadmap and plans are on track, as described.
http:// and https:// changes in django
======================================
A reminder, if you are accessing an instance using http:// (whether
localhost or not), then the changes described in the documentation **must**
be applied for the instance to operate correctly. This is a security change
in Django, not a change in LAVA.
https://staging.validation.linaro.org/static/docs/v2/pipeline-debug.html#us…
Symptoms include HTTP500 errors but can also include the inability to login
to an instance using LDAP or local django accounts, depending on your local
apache configuration.
Changes in 2017.11
==================
Changes in the 2017.11 release are described below, including the short git
commit hash. Use the git commit hash to go directly to that commit using a
URL like https://git.linaro.org/lava/lava-server.git/commit/?id=b19b9648a
for lava-server or
https://git.linaro.org/lava/lava-dispatcher.git/commit/?id=1451e3a4 for
lava-dispatcher.
Where the changelog message includes a story id like LAVA-552, that id can
be added to the base URL: https://projects.linaro.org/browse/ to find out
more about the change itself. e.g.
https://projects.linaro.org/browse/LAVA-552
All LAVA stories are publicly available without requiring a login.
2017.11 also includes large changes to the packaging of both lava-server
and lava-dispatcher. The prompts formerly used to configure a V1 remote
worker have been removed. Packaging is maintained at
https://github.com/Linaro/pkg-lava-server and
https://github.com/Linaro/pkg-lava-dispatcher
Packages for 2017.11 have been uploaded to Debian unstable and also the
LAVA repositories (for jessie-backports and stretch-backports).

Hi everyone!
I have recently upgraded our production server to 2017.10-1. Whenever anyone tries to login in the WEB UI, either the “403: Forbidden – CSRF verification failed” error is returned, or no error at all (for the latter, the default LAVA page is shown again, but with no login info).
I also tried creating a new superuser from the CLI. That worked, but I can’t use it to logon via the WEB UI, so I guess this has nothing to do with the user accounts stored in LAVA.
Is this triggered by a change in Django/LAVA?
Kind regards,
Dragoș
Hello everybody,
I am working with both Jenkins and lava and I thought it was possible to
change X attributes in charts to use Jenkins build number instead of a date.
In my job, I defined a metadata like this :
job_name: quad-ssh-host
device_type: ssh
*metadata: {jenkins-build: 725, job-context: nightly}*
timeouts:
job:
minutes: 10
action:
minutes: 3
connection:
seconds: 20
visibility: public
[…]
and I made a query that can select these jobs using job-context as a filter.
Then, in the chart, I wanted to use the jenkins-build value to group job
instead of a simple date, but the chart does not seem to be able to do that.
I made many tries on the lava 2017.2 version. I wonder whether I am
misusing lava charts or if it is an issue that need a fix.
Thanks in advance for any reply.

Hello again!
After managing to run a consistent series of tests on one of our boards, I came across a situation where the job log seems to be too big for LAVA to display. When clicking the ”Job details” button, the server eventually sends a ”502 Proxy Error” message.
Is there a setting or a workaround to make LAVA serve the job log & details in ”chunks”?
I did download the plain log (using, for example, http://LAVA_HOST/scheduler/job/JOB_ID/log_file/plain), and it is, indeed, huge (29 MB), but I was just curious if, maybe a ”log rotation”-like mechanism could be used in these situations (somehow).
Thanks in advance!

Hi!
Just upgraded from 2017.6 to 2017.10-1.
Tried re-running some jobs that worked fine just before the upgrade and noticed that git checkouts can no longer pe performed.
The encountered error is:
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly\nfatal: early EOF\nfatal: index-pack failed\n
Tried checking out manualy on the host, using the same repo. It works.
How could I proceed investigating this?
Could this be related to some lava user configuration that got reset (I don't know if git-related configs are associated with LAVA)?
Thanks in advance (again)!
P.S: I have attached the plain job log

Hi all,
Starting this week, we are finalising the transition of LAVA main production to LAVA V2. The main update and hopefully minor downtime, will commence at 09:00 UTC on Monday 6th November.
Along with this we will also be upgrading all micro-instances to Debian Stretch and LAVA 2017.11. There will be a brief period on Monday morning, which should be less than an hour, when remote logins will be disabled as we upgrade the gateway server.
Please note, that when validation.linaro.org <http://validation.linaro.org/> comes back online, LAVA V1 job submissions will be rejected, so if you have any bots which auto-submit V1 jobs, please work with us to transition them to V2.
For future reference, for announcements about Lab availability, you should join the lava-users mailing list.
Thanks
Dave
