Hello,

 

I am having an issue adding a health-check job for a device-type using the API. I have tried doing so using both lavacli and through a python script using the xml-rpc client, but both times I get the following error:

 

With lavacli:

Unable to call 'device-types.health-check': <Fault 400: 'Unable to write health-check: Permission denied'>

 

With the python script:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "./API.py", line 9, in <module>

    server.scheduler.device_types.set_health_check("r8a7743-iwg20d-q7-dbcm-ca","r8a7743-iwg20d-q7-dbcm-ca.yaml")

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/xmlrpc/client.py", line 1092, in __call__

    return self.__send(self.__name, args)

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/xmlrpc/client.py", line 1432, in __request

    verbose=self.__verbose

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/xmlrpc/client.py", line 1134, in request

    return self.single_request(host, handler, request_body, verbose)

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/xmlrpc/client.py", line 1150, in single_request

    return self.parse_response(resp)

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/xmlrpc/client.py", line 1322, in parse_response

    return u.close()

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/xmlrpc/client.py", line 655, in close

    raise Fault(**self._stack[0])

xmlrpc.client.Fault: <Fault 400: 'Unable to write health-check: Permission denied'>

 

The user I use to authenticate the xml-rpc client has superuser privileges and I have tried using a number of different API functions (including ones which require superuser privileges like device-types add and devices add), all of which have worked with both lavacli and the python script.

I have also made sure that the name of the healthcheck file matches the device-type.

 

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

 

Thanks,
