Hi Everyone,

I am trying to set up a standalone Lava V2 Server by following the instructions on the Linaro website and so far things have gone smoothly. I have Lava installed, a superuser created and I can access the application through a web browser. But, I have the following issues:

Issue #1:

• When I tried to submit a simple Lava V2 test job, I got an error message

stating that the "beaglebone black" device type is not available.

https://staging.validation.linaro.org/static/docs/v2/first-devices.html#crea...

The device-type and the device need to exist as database objects. The device also needs a device dictionary.

• I found the directory where the .jinja2 files were stored including the

beaglebone-black.jinja2 file, but regardless of what I tried, I couldn't get the web application to see the device type definitions.

The UI only looks for device-types defined in the database of that instance.

Issue #2:

• When I tried to submit a job, I pasted a small .yaml file and the

validation failed because it didn't recognize the data['run'] in the job. I tried a few others and then I tried a V1 .json file and it validated just fine.

• What do I have to do to allow Lava to accept V2 .yaml files? Am I missing

something simple?

Please follow the documentation, including how to setup a QEMU device *before* attempting to use any other devices, submitting the first QEMU job from the documentation link and getting familiar with the django admin interface.
