 graham | and for context, about 95% of our installs are on in CI, and the way we do ramped deploys doesn't have any information that we could use to do smart targeting about if it is in CI or not | 19:56:29 |
 hexa | the install worked just fine | 19:57:58 |
| graham | great :D | 19:58:07 |
| hexa | thanks for working on the installer 🙂 | 19:58:15 |

| mae | I can relay messages if you don't have an account on fedi | 11:45:24 |
 raitobezarius | I think you're talking about the NixOS installer which is different from the Nix installer | 11:47:08 |
| mae | Oops, right | 11:47:30 |
| raitobezarius | I'm planning to answer this thread on Fedi to debug, in the meantime, I will ping someone who knows about the installer on the thread | 11:47:31 |
| mae | Appreciate that | 11:47:46 |

| eliasp | I have trouble getting the DeterminateSystems installer to work on RHEL7.9 (yes, I know that's rather outdated, but that's a corp environment and it being so outdated is one of the main reasons why I want Nix there).
My problem: I have no idea, what could actually go wrong. The BT just contains 12 lines of <unknown>. Using explicitly 0.9.1 now. According to my audit.log it's not an SELinux violation...
See also: https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer/issues/512
any hints on how to provide further debug info? the strace output (despite using -ff) surprisingly seems to be rather useless and doesn't indicate anything regarding the execution of the installer after the download of the script....
| 09:23:54 |
| 16 Jun 2023 |
| eliasp | nvm the strace stuff... my mistake, the output of the other processes ends up in ${outfile}.${PID}...
the problem seems to be related to the fact, that by the system, NIS is used (while the installer doesn't use NIS via NSS and only reads local /etc/group) and nscd somehow not responding as it should.
further details in the linked issue... | 08:01:27 |
