[Thincrust-devel] Errors w/ qcow output from appliance-tools

[Perry N. Myers]

David,

Here's some info on the problem that I've been having.

I used the attached kickstart (foo.ks) and ran:
appliance-creator --config foo.ks --name foo -f qcow -d -v

The output includes the following:
> writing image XML to /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/tmp-N65fLE/foo.xml
> converting /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/tmp-N65fLE/foo-sda.raw image to /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/tmp-N65fLE/foo-sda.qcow
> qemu-img: Could not open '/var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/tmp-N65fLE/foo-sda.qcow'
> Unable to convert disk format to qcow, using raw disk image
> moving disks to final location
> moving /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/tmp-N65fLE/foo.xml to /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/out
> moving /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/tmp-N65fLE/foo-sda.raw to /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/out
> moving /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/tmp-N65fLE/foo-sda.qcow to /var/tmp/imgcreate-223Oxs/out
> done

Full output is on:

foo.ks is very basic.  Just the min stuff needed to create an appliance 
really using base-pkgs.

These are the versions I am using:
appliance-tools-002-3.fc9.noarch
appliance-os-001-3.fc9.noarch

I've tried this on multiple Fedora 9 hosts and had the same results.

Let me know if your investigation using this kickstart/commandline reveals 
anything.

Perry
