Commissioning failed due to lldpd

[irongheistgx]

Hello

I am using the latest Maas version (3.4) and I have a problem with a step in the commissioning of my physical machines. It’s the “lldpd” installation step (script 20-maas-01-install-lldpd).
Here’s the error in question:

Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
E: Unable to locate package lldpd

I specify that I’m in an disconnected environment from the Internet, that I have a mirror of the official Ubuntu repo in my infrastructure and that it can be reached from my MAAS VM.
In the MAAS settings, I’ve specified to use the latter as a proxy (to allow machines to type in the repo).

The repo works correctly because I’ve set up a VM on the same network and with the same Ubuntu version (20.04) as my physical machines and I’m able to install lldpd correctly.

I can confirm that my machines can type in my repo because in the commissioning logs, I can see GET requests on my repo and I can’t see any errors on them :

Hi @irongheistgx

could you please access with your browser the following link (update the ip and the system_id accordingly)

http://<maas_ip>:5240/MAAS/metadata/latest/by-id/<system_id>/?op=get_preseed

and paste here the content?

Unable to locate package lldpd

Could it be that you have a mirror for focal but MAAS is configured to use jammy for commissioning?

Hi @r00ta

I can confirm that with your order I was able to see the problem. I saw in the metadata that I didn’t specify the components of my repo. As a result, it could only see the main repo and not the universe (which contains the lldpd packages).

  sources:
    repo_infra_3:
      source: deb http://192.168.1.100/repos/archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $RELEASE
        main

By adding the components and deactivating those of the official repos (which I can’t type as I’m in a disconnected environment), it works!

Thanks for your help.
