| eliasp | I have trouble getting the DeterminateSystems installer to work on RHEL7.9 (yes, I know that's rather outdated, but that's a corp environment and it being so outdated is one of the main reasons why I want Nix there).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....

| 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 |

 Matthew Kenigsberg | Ana: I know you had mentioned you'll bring back some of the user creation code for darwin, are you going to revert it entirely so that it works again on Linux? Asking because I think I broke the Linux install by disabling auto-uid-allocation without creating users in https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer/pull/2 | 16:44:53 |

Asking because I think I broke the Linux install by disabling auto-uid-allocation without creating users in https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer/pull/2 0.10.0 which we released last day has all the code for user creation restored and the linux planners simply default to 0 | 17:14:40 |
| @hoverbear:matrix.org | Should be able to remove the auto-uid-allocation feature in the nix-org version and set the default users to 32 and use that code ;) | 17:16:08 |
