Revision history [back]

Hi avladu,

thanks for your help. I did as advised. Still the same error. Even worse, I can't get it to work even completely isolated:

whereas, without concatenating the regexp I can get matches

>>> re.search(r'iface eth0 inet static\s+',debian_network_conf)

>>> re.search(r'address\s+(?P<address>[^\s]+)\s+',debian_network_conf)

So, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance, Florian

UPDATE / solved

Hi avladu,

thanks. You putted me in the right direction! I was missing "s" at the end of dns-nameserver. So this is info is evaluated properly:

cat << EOF > ./seed/openstack/content/network
iface eth0 inet static
  address 192.168.1.90
  netmask 255.255.255.0
  broadcast 192.168.1.255
  gateway 192.168.1.254
  dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8

EOF

Bye, Florian
