Great - thank you

Hi,

I am hitting an issue when launching Windows 2012R2 images on OpenStack Stein using Terraform. I initially thought though issue was with my image but I have used the "eval" image from Cloudbase and the results are the same. Cloud-init is working fine and all the standard provisioning seems to work but when I try execute multipart userdata that consists of 2 shell scripts fail to execute.

The backtrace for each script is identical:

I am not sure where to start looking for a solution.

I have pasted the full output here: https://pastebin.com/FkpGQfWK

ok great - should I open a issue on the cloudbase github page with these same details?

Quite by chance I managed to figure out why this is failing. When creating the terraform template_cloudinit_config I had

Failure running multipart shellscript with Terraform and OpenStack Hi, I am hitting an issue when launching Windows 201

Hi Adrian, Just realised I had not marked this as fixed. I have used the beta installer a couple times with no further issues. Do you know when this will become official?

Hi Adrian - the beta installer worked great! The user_data still shows as base64 encoded in the log but the script is executed correctly and I can see the decoded content in c:\cfn. Thank you for your help

Thanks Adrian, I'll keep monitoring this case for updates

Thanks Adrian - for now I'll execute the 1 script inline and pull/execute anything else required from another web server. Out of interest is there a guide on how to get setup for cloudbase-init development? I don't mind making/testing minor changes myself

I get the same result using the 2013-05-23 template version. Does cloudbase-init decode the content when the mime Content-Transfer-Encoding is base64?

We are using the stable/ocata branch, tag version 15.1.3

Hi Adrian I have defined my MultipartMime as per the AD Controller example but unfortunately the behaviour is the same. Debug -> https://pastebin.com/by1pkRj3 The cfn-userdata is still base64 encoded and I can see this WARNING in the debug log: Unsupported user_data format

Hi,

Using HEAT Templating. I am trying to make use of OS::Heat::MultipartMime to send a Powershell script and PEM certificate as user_data.

My initial yaml file can be found here: https://pastebin.com/29tqUnPR

My script is based on these examples:

• https://github.com/openstack/heat-tem...
• https://github.com/openstack/heat-tem...

The problem I am having is that no matter what I subtype I set for the Powershell script, it is always base64 encoded and it is not executed by Cloudbase-Init. Please see the debug log for more info --> https://pastebin.com/cSFTP4ae

I have tried setting the subtype to both x-shellscript and x-cfninitdata. With x-shellscript defined clousbase-init attempts to execute the script but does not decode it before execution and the execution fails.

I can get the script working if I "inline" the data and do not use MultipartMime: https://pastebin.com/DZB1vy9F

My goal is to pass the certificate (to be used by the WinRM plugin) and a few shell scripts (to configure services and add this host to the domain) to the Windows Instance but I cannot find any examples of this.

Is this possible?

Hi Adrian Thank you for the feedback. I changed the install to use the same user that packer uses during the provisioning since I know for sure this user has local administrator rights and now the COM port works.
